new problem explained at last post!



it worked like 10 mins ago now i changed one thing(i dont remember) and now it doesnt work.
can you guys see a problem. please excuse my crappy standards / coding. im new to php and im just fooling around with it.

[PHP]
<?
$Seconds = '3600';
$Minutes = ($Seconds / 60);
$Hours = ($Minutes / 60);
$Days = ($Hours / 24);
$Time = "$Seconds Seconds";
if ($Days >= 1){
$RHours = $Hours % ($Days);
$RMinutes = $Minutes % ($RHours);
$RSeconds = $Seconds % ($RMinutes);
$RDays = Floor($Days);
$Time = "$RDays D, $RHours Hr, $RMinutes Min, $RSeconds Sec";
}elseif ($Hours >= 1){
$RMinutes = $Minutes % ($Hours);
$RSeconds = $Seconds % ($RMinutes);
$RHours = Floor($Hours);
$Time = "$RHours Hours, $RMinutes Minutes $RSeconds Seconds";
}elseif ($Minutes >= 1){
$RSeconds = $Seconds %($Minutes);
$Minutes = Floor($Minutes);
$Time = "$Minutes Minutes, $RSeconds Seconds";
}
imagettftext($im,8.0,0,47,63,$black,$font,$Time);
imagettftext($im,8.0,0,46,61,$white,$font,$Time);
imagettftext($im,8.0,0,47,86,$black,$font,$OldB);
imagettftext($im,8.0,0,46,84,$white,$font,$OldB);
imagettftext($im,8.0,0,50,109,$black,$font,$OldC);
imagettftext($im,8.0,0,49,107,$white,$font,$OldC);
imagettftext($im,8.0,0,154,86,$black,$font,$OldE);
imagettftext($im,8.0,0,153,84,$white,$font,$OldE);
imagettftext($im,8.0,0,168,109,$black,$font,$OldLe);
imagettftext($im,8.0,0,167,107,$white,$font,$OldLe);
imagepng($im);
destroyimage($im)
?>[/PHP]

If you have the exact same window open where you type the script use ctrl + z to undo :D. Otherwise I don't know what language that is or any others besides Pascal :p.

Checking it out…


You left out quite a few variable declarations. $im, $black, $white, $font, $OldB, $OldC, $OldE, and $OldLe.

And destroyimage doesn't seem to be a valid function.

its actually a problem with
[php]$Time = "$Seconds Seconds";
if ($Days >= 1){
$RHours = $Hours % ($Days);
$RMinutes = $Minutes % ($RHours);
$RSeconds = $Seconds % ($RMinutes);
$RDays = Floor($Days);
$Time = "$RDays D, $RHours Hr, $RMinutes Min, $RSeconds Sec";
}elseif ($Hours >= 1){
$RMinutes = $Minutes % ($Hours);
$RSeconds = $Seconds % ($RMinutes);
$RHours = Floor($Hours);
$Time = "$RHours Hours, $RMinutes Minutes $RSeconds Seconds";
}elseif ($Minutes >= 1){
$RSeconds = $Seconds %($Minutes);
$Minutes = Floor($Minutes);
$Time = "$Minutes Minutes, $RSeconds Seconds";
} [/php]

its the elseif it has to be all the same variable its comparing. so i have figured it out. ive just encountered other problems.

ps destroyimage is fine look on php.net lol

Ah, sorry. Doesn't show up in my phpDesigner. And when I tried to compile it, it threw an error.

And is there anything more in the script? You don't have $Days, $Hours, $Minutes, or $Seconds defined here.

arent you meant to use dots in front of and behind variables in strings? like this:
[php]$Time = ".$Seconds. Seconds";

$Time = ".$RDays. D, .$RHours. Hr, .$RMinutes. Min, .$RSeconds. Sec";

$Time = ".$RHours. Hours, .$RMinutes. Minutes .$RSeconds. Seconds";

$Time = ".$Minutes. Minutes, .$RSeconds. Seconds";[/php]
etc.

[edit] i just checked some of my scripts and yeah, the dots make the variables work in the strings.

@ Travo,

It should still work without the dots.

The dots are for appending two strings together. When you use the double quotes to use a string, you'll be able to use both variables and normal text together, without problems.

Edit: Canada, mind me asking what you're trying to do here? If you want to output the current date, just use PHP's date() function.

@ jason2gs

Ok. umm…. damn this is frustrating.

i just realised you declared seconds as a string. you cant do math functions on a string.

edit: @jason2gs again. it looks like a stat sig or somethin

Oh my. Looks like CanadaMan just

EPIC FAILED!

haha hee hee. works now. ill post the code. thats was my first…no second attempt at it php so give me a break.
@travo: actually you can do math functions on a string as php variables are variants (pretty sure, i maybe totally in left field though :rolleyes:)
yes it is a stat sig.

[php] $hours = ($minutes/60);
$days = ($hours/24);
$weeks = ($days/7);
$months = ($weeks/4);
$years = ($months/12);
if ($minutes > 525948){
$rmonths = ($months % $years);
$rweeks = ($weeks % $months);
$rhours = ($hours % $days);
$rminutes = ($minutes % $hours);
$rdays = ($days % $weeks);
$ryears = floor($years);
$Time = "$ryears Yr, $rmonths Mo, $rweeks Wk, $rdays D, $rhours H, $rminutes M";
}elseif ($minutes > 43829){
$rweeks = ($weeks % $months);
$rhours = ($hours % $days);
$rminutes = ($minutes % $hours);
$rdays = ($days % $weeks);
$rmonths = floor($months);
$Time = "$rmonths Mths, $rweeks Wks, $rdays Ds, $rhours Hs, $rminutes Ms";
}elseif ($minutes > 10080){
$rhours = ($hours % $days);
$rminutes = ($minutes % $hours);
$rdays = ($days % $weeks);
$rweeks = floor($weeks);
$Time = "$rweeks Weeks, $rdays Days, $rhours Hours, $rminutes Mins";
}elseif ($minutes > 1440){
$rhours = ($hours % $days);
$rminutes = ($minutes % $hours);
$rdays = floor($days);
$Time = "$rdays Days, $rhours Hours, $rminutes Minutes";
}elseif ($minutes > 60){
$rminutes = ($minutes % $hours);
$rhours = floor($hours);
$Time = "$rhours Hours, $rminutes Minutes";
}elseif ($minutes > 0){
$Time = "$minutes Minutes";
}elseif ($minutes == 0){
$Time = '0 Minutes';
}[/php]
the dots dont make a difference…actually it just outputs the dots as dots.

Wait, so what was the problem with it?

you see in the first one how i did elseif(minutes) then next time i did elseif(hours) it was a comparison issue i guess.

Ah, alright :)

right now its working pretty good.

ok need some help here. some weird thing. explained below.
[php]if ($minutes > 1440){
$rdays = floor($days);
$rhours = $hours % ($rdays*24);
if ($rhours > 0){
$rminutes = $minutes % ($rhours * 60);
}else{
$rminutes = $minutes % ($rdays*1440);
}
$Time = "$rdays Days, $rhours Hours, $rminutes Minutes";[/php]

after 1 day, 4 hours and 59 minutes it will go 1 day, 5 hours and 240 mins. i dont know why.
