24 hour time issue

[mario kulka]

hi,
My form asks for the time in the format hh? mm? am/pm?
However before I combine it all into one value (so I can insert it into my MySQL table) I would like to change the format to military time. I thought I could simply add 12 to the "hh" value when "am/pm" is pm, which works fine except for 12:00AM.
So I wrote:

if ((($ampm eq 'PM')&&($hh != 12))||(($hh == 12) && ($ampm eq 'AM'))){$hh = $hh + 12;}

This seems to work but there must be a standard (prettier way:) to acomplish the same. Or is that fine?

Thanks,
Mariusz
