seconds converted to HH-MM-SS

[Kription]

Hello,

I am having a nightmare of a time getting seconds converted to
hour-minute-seconds

I have a third party application that outputs only in seconds since

so if someone has been logged in for 1 minute, the time value would be 60,
if they were on for 5 minutes and 3 seconds the value would be 303

what I need is a way to take the 303 seconds and convert it to a human
readable:
0 hours 5 minutes and 3 seconds

and if possible; if hours = 0 then it wouldn't display - the same for
minutes.

Thank you in advance !!

try this:

$t = (5 * 60) + 3; // 5 minutes and 3 seconds
print date("H:i:s",-57600 + $t);

will print "00:05:03"

#v+
<?php
function secs2hms($secs) {
if ($secs<0) return false;
$m = (int)($secs / 60); $s = $secs % 60;
$h = (int)($m / 60); $m = $m % 60;
return array($h, $m, $s);
}

for ($i=0; $i<16; ++$i) {
echo implode(', ', secs2hms($i*817 )), "\n";
}
?>
#v-

What this script doesn't do, I'll leave up to you :)

Happy Coding :)

Well, I wrote this yesterday. Does the job, but I'd be very interested
to hear what people think about efficiency and processor cost. Is a
funciton like this wildly unreasonable?



// timePassed is a function to turn a time into a more human-friendly format
// Provide it with the number of seconds that have passed, and it will
return a more suitable
// description of how much time has passed.

function timePassed($pas tTimestamp)
{
$currentTimesta mp = time();
$timePassed = $currentTimesta mp - $pastTimestamp; //time passed in seconds
// Minute == 60 seconds
// Hour == 3600 seconds
// Day == 86400
// Week == 604800
$elapsedString = "";
if($timePassed > 604800)
{
$weeks = floor($timePass ed / 604800);
$timePassed -= $weeks * 604800;
$elapsedString = $weeks." weeks, ";
}
if($timePassed > 86400)
{
$days = floor($timePass ed / 86400);
$timePassed -= $days * 86400;
$elapsedString .= $days." days, ";
}
if($timePassed > 3600)
{
$hours = floor($timePass ed / 3600);
$timePassed -= $hours * 3600;
$elapsedString .= $hours." hours, ";
}
if($timePassed > 60)
{
$minutes = floor($timePass ed / 60);
$timePassed -= $minutes * 60;
$elapsedString .= $minutes." minutes, ";
}
$elapsedString .= $timePassed." seconds";

return $elapsedString;
}



If you think it's what you're looking for, feel free to use it.

Re: seconds converted to HH-MM-SS

Use gmdate() instead. The extra hours that you're getting comes from the
time zone difference between your and Greenwich, and would change depending
on where you are (I got error from your code, for instance, because the
timestamp was negative).

gmdate("H:i:s", $t) will yield exactly what's needed.
