Hi all,
I'm using this code to display the current time for our location on
our website:
?php
date_default_timezone_set('America/Los_Angeles');
$theTimeIs = getdate(time());
$theHour = $theTimeIs['hours'];
$theMinute = $theTimeIs['minutes']; // make minutes
under 10 show two digits
$theSecond = $theTimeIs['seconds'];
if($theHour 12){
$theHour = $theHour - 12;
$dn = PM;
} else {
$dn = AM;
}
echo $theHour:$theMinute:$theSecond $dn;
?
It works great except for one small detail. If the time is 3:04:02,
it is displayed as 3:4:2 which, of course, is very odd looking. So I
corrected it as follows:
?php
date_default_timezone_set('America/Los_Angeles');
$theTimeIs = getdate(time());
$theHour = $theTimeIs['hours'];
if (strlen ($theTimeIs['minutes']) 2) {
$theMinute = 0 . $theTimeIs['minutes'];
} else {
$theMinute = $theTimeIs['minutes'];
}
if (strlen ($theTimeIs['seconds']) 2) {
$theSecond = 0 . $theTimeIs['seconds'];
} else {
$theSecond = $theTimeIs['seconds'];
}
if($theHour 12){
$theHour = $theHour - 12;
$dn = PM;
} else {
$dn = AM;
}
echo $theHour:$theMinute:$theSecond $dn;
?
It works, but is there a better way to do it?
Thanks,
Frank
What's wrong with using the date() function? You can have it output any
sort of format you wish. So, getting a 2 digit time in
hours:minutes:seconds you would put:
date(H:i:s);

Thanks, Ash. I had tried that before but I couldn't find a way to
make it display in 12 hour time, so I went with the other method. I
guess I didn't look hard enough. =;)
This works:
echo (date(g:i A));

Thanks, Jonathan! I learned two new functions today! Both work
great but I think I like sprintf for this application better since
it's more succinct.
echo sprintf('%02d', $theMinute);
echo (str_pad($theMinute,2,0,STR_PAD_LEFT));

Uh. If you MUST do this nonsense, then at least do this instead and not
echo sprintf:
printf('%02d', $theMinute);

Hi Nathan,
I agree with you, and I believe that there are many persons
who don't like the idea of hosting all their applications on
a third party server. IMO there are some advantages and
disadvantages to doing so but that's a discussion in itself.
Hosted servers are basically a trade off between doing it yourself and
paying someone else to do it. The initial choice is between installing
your own servers or spend the money to rent servers from someone else.
Most of the time it is actually the network bandwidth issue that decides
this. Can you afford a network connection that will handle the peak
loads but be unused most of the time?
But once you decide to pay someone else, you have another set of trade
offs to negotiate. What services do they provide? What systems do they
offer? How do they manage version control and updates? Are they PCI
compliant? There are a wide range of options available in the market.
Not all of them will fit your specific needs.
We just moved most of our servers from a physical hosting service to a
managed service. Where we used to maintain the OS and all software on
the server, the new service now handles that for us. The trade off is
that now we have to settle for the server package they offer. That means
we get the versions of Apache, PHP and PostgreSQL that were included in
the last production release of RHEL. If we want a newer version of PHP,
we have to take over maintenance of that component. It becomes our
responsibility to install the updates, patches, etc., for that
component.
Once you get beyond a private web site these types of decisions become
part of the management process, just as make or buy decisions are part
of the hardware procurement process. There are people out there making a
good living just guiding companies through this decision making process.

Hi guys,
As I know When we POST a big data(e.g. 500M) to a php script, the php script
only can run after the big data finished POST.
for example:
a.php
?php die(''); ?
and I post 500m data to a.php, after that a.php cannot be died immediately.
only when the data finished post.
How can I make the a.php die before the 500m data finish?
Thanks in advance.

Your script will die ungracefully when it runs out of execution time
(defined in php.ini)

Subject: [PHP] Invoking functions stored in a separate directory?
I am developing an idea for a website engine which can be shared between
several different websites. Each website would have its own directory under
a common root directory, and the engine would be in a separate directory
Engine:
Root
Website_1.com, Website_2.com, Engine
The website directories would each contain the design data for that website,
consisting basically of a mixture of text files and images. The various
pages would be loaded by loading
