time - PHP Count Down Expiry Button or Link -
i'm trying create button or link expire after 1 hour.
i'm setting time visitor hit page cookie.
most of code examples have seen give time has passed , not time left.
example: link expire in 0 hours, 30, mins , 34 seconds
this rough code :
//setting cookie example setcookie('previous_time', time(), time()+3600*1); $current_time = time(); $previous_time = $_cookie['previous_time']; $time_diff = $current_time-$previous_time; this i'm stuck, have no idea how convert $time_diff timestamp format "expire in 0 hours, 30, mins , 34 seconds"
many thanks.
to format time difference, math, since $time_diff number of seconds between 2 times:
$hours = floor( $time_diff / 3600); $minutes = floor( ($time_diff / 60) % 60); $seconds = $time_diff % 60; echo "$hours hours, $minutes minutes, $seconds seconds\n"; so, value of 20712 would produce :
5 hours, 45 minutes, 12 seconds
