Here’s what I want to do:
If the date is Thu 23rd July 2009 and the time is greater than or equal to 05:00PM then a message is displayed. Otherwise nothing happens.
I’ve got this:
<?php
$d=date("D jS F Y");
if ($d=="Thu 23rd July 2009")
echo "It works!";
?>
But I can’t for the life of me figure out how to include the time in this script, so that an echo takes place if it is a certain date AND time.
I also tried this:
<?php
$d=date("D jS F Y g:iA");
if ($d=="Thu 23rd July 2009 02:00PM")
echo "It works!";
?>
But nothing happens - I think I need to have “>=” (Greater than or equal to) somewhere, especially for the time.
Would appreciate any helps guys.
Cheers!

if(time() >= mktime(17, 0, 0, 7, 23, 2009))
{
}
If the current time is greater than 23rd july 2009 @ 5pm

Whoa, that’s gotta be the fastest reply ever! Cheers for this
Is the following correct? As I can’t seem to get it to display a message to show it works (it’s after 2pm (14:00) over here in the UK):
<?php
if(time() >= mktime(14, 0, 0, 7, 23, 2009)) {
echo "It works!";
}
?>
As you’ve probably guessed, I’m no PHP guru like yourself…
Cheers again

Is your server based in the UK? Try the following to see what time the server thinks it is:
echo date('H:i');

Ah, spot on, turns out the server time is actually 13.11 so changed time to reflect this (13) and volia, works perfectly!
Guys, thanks so much, saved me a lot of headaches!
Really appreciated so thanks again!
