MrXander Posted August 14, 2007 Share Posted August 14, 2007 Hi there, can someone show me a way of taking away say, five minutes from the current time? To explain, I want to show users active in the last 5 minutes, and when their last action was. I have done it all apart from limiting their last action to display... All last actions are a unix timestamp. All I need to know is how to take away 5 minutes...

d22552000 Posted August 14, 2007 Share Posted August 14, 2007 uh... $time = time() - 300; I don't know if that's what you want, but that would set the variable TIME with time that is 5 minutes old.

wildteen88 Posted August 14, 2007 Share Posted August 14, 2007 You could also use strtotime too: strtotime("-5minutes"); Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/64894-solved-question-about-time/#findComment-323756 Share on other sites More sharing options...
