Heya, Shaif.

'm' fetches the day of the month with leading zero. You want 'i' (http://php.net/date).

Also, for performance, consider doing something like this so that you only have to call strtotime() once:
[code=php]
$timeRow = strtotime($row[2]);
$S= gmdate("H", $timeRow);
$Sm= gmdate("m", $timeRow);
[/code]

Hi Pbmods, Ya its working how ever , its get only rounded minutes such as 30 mins only if have. But if 00.09 , its cant count. Is there any way to get exact minutes pls?

You want to round to the nearest 30 minutes?

[code=php]
$minutes = ((int) ($minutes / 30 + .5)) * 30;
[/code]
