Web Development PHP Help Convert seconds to total time in PHP
Tuesday, 31 January 2012 09:24
This is intended for activity/session durations and although I usually get MySQL to do the date/time calculations, there are times when we have to do with PHP. This is the shortest way I know to properly convert seconds into total hours, minutes and seconds (taking into account regional settings and without using a date function).
How?
$total_time =intval(intval($total_seconds)/ 3600).":"; $total_time.=str_pad(intval(($total_seconds/60)%60),2,"0",STR_PAD_LEFT).":"; $total_time.=str_pad(intval($total_seconds%60),2,"0",STR_PAD_LEFT); // yields // 82800 = 23:00:00 // 108000 = 30:00:00On one line:
$total_time=intval(intval($total_seconds)/ 3600).":".str_pad(intval(($total_seconds/60)%60),2,"0",STR_PAD_LEFT).":".str_pad(intval($total_seconds%60),2,"0",STR_PAD_LEFT);
