secondsConvert will return (hours*60*60)+(minutes*60)+seconds.PHP Code:<?php
function secondsConvert($time){
$seconds = explode(':', $time);
$total_seconds = 0;
$total_seconds += $seconds[0] * (60 * 60);
$total_seconds += $seconds[1] * 60;
$total_seconds += $seconds[2];
return $total_seconds;
}
$time = date("H:i:s");
echo secondsConvert($time)." seconds";
?>
how to do with date?
Well - for days, that would just be day * 24 * 60 * 60, but for months and years, it'd be hard because there aren't always four weeks in a month...
how to create difference then?
can I use $time - $timet = 300seconds ?
OR
if (($time - $timet) >= '00:05:00') then {echo "he is online";}
How to do something like that?
What do you mean? Can't you just insert names of the people online, and when the user logs out, there not online?
But sometimes people dont push log out and name would be still there
Hmm.. So every time the user goes somewhere, have a field for each user called "Minute" and insert the current minute. Then, when every user refreshes the page, it checks each users minutes, and if its more then 5 minutes idle, delete them from the list. (also, make sure 61 = 0, 62 = 1...)
Will this work even then when they close their browsers??
Yes - 5 minutes after they close the browser, they shold be off the list.
