Display different image each hour of the day (based on server time)

**Gibzon** · 08-06-2008, 03:19 PM

Hi there, im using this php script and i want to add minutes on the script but i have a problem when the radio programs last more than an hour the script just doesnt show anything after that minute comes.

Code:

<?php
$hora = date('G'); // Horas de 0 a 23
$dia = date('w'); // Dias 0 (Domingo) a 6 (Sabado)
$minuto = date('i'); // Minutos de 00 a 59

$hora = $hora+1;
$minuto = $minuto+21;

// MARTES
if ($dia == 2 && $hora >= 0 && $hora < 4) $img = 'images/yaco.gif';
else if ($dia == 2 && $hora >= 4 && $hora < 8) $img = 'images/nancy.gif';
else if ($dia == 2 && $hora >= 8 && $hora < 12) $img = 'images/lucas.gif';
else if ($dia == 2 && $hora >= 12 && $hora < 13) $img = 'images/juan.gif';
else if ($dia == 2 && $hora >= 13 && $hora < 15) $img = 'images/henoch.gif';
else if ($dia == 2 && $hora >= 15 && $hora < 17) $img = 'images/gustavo.gif';
else if ($dia == 2 && $hora >= 17 && $hora <= 21 && $minuto <= 44) $img = 'images/edmundo.gif';
?>

Hi,

This post is old but...

I just came across this script and it's almost exactly what I need, but I'm also interested in adding minutes as my schedule changes on the mid point of some hours.

If anyone can help, I would appreciate it greatly. I would even pay you a bit for you time.

Thanks.

would it be possible for this code to be made in to html or css? if so would someone please help me to do it as I dont know how.

HTML and CSS don't allow for conditional ("if") statements. No. You need Javascript, or a serverside programming language like PHP, ASP, CGI, etc.
(Of course any of those can be combined with HTML and CSS as needed to create the desired look.)

Hello thanks for your reply,

the problem I have is I can not upload PHP to my host, but JS etc I can, would it be possible for you to help me make this into a JS code by any chance?

**djr33** · 09-29-2011, 08:37 PM

I should clarify something: you can do this in Javascript, but you cannot base it on server time. It will be based on the user's time on their computer (even if it is wrong or in a different location). You might be able to use Javascript to make it relative to the right timezone (adjust based on the current timezone) if that information is available. I'm not sure.

But if you google "change image every hour javascript" you will find some information. Please do a search first.

If your specific question is about the server time, then, no, you must have a serverside language like PHP available. You can do everything else in Javascript, but not the server time.

Hopfully this is helpfule to others looking to do the same thing.

$year = date('Y'); //set variable $year to the current year

//G is the date key for hours in 24 format (not 12), with no leading 0s, like 02.

// Adjust 2 hour offset for MST below.

Do you have much experience with php/MySQL?

If you have the basis for your HTML form, and have some experience with php/MySQL then this might be something that somebody here can guide you on.

However, if you have no experience and require somebody to code this for you as a custom application, it will probably need to be taken to the paid work requests forum : http://www.dynamicdrive.com/forums/f...-Work-Requests
