World Time Clock Link Demo
This is a demo of the function below intended to convert a unix time code to a World Time Clock link, intended for sites where a time is known (e.g. from a database) and a link needs to be generated. I just put this into action for the MIDEA events items in Wordpress
In this example the time zone of the source is set to be US/Pacific, but is easily edited in the code or can be passed as a paramater (I dont feel like making a fancy menu for this demo, sue me.) In the demo, I allow you to enter a date (and time if you like) in a string format, and then use strtotime()
on that value to pass to my function, which wants unix time.
The Code
function get_worldtimeclock ($ts, $tz=224) { // generates a URL for a world time clock link for a given timestamp $ts // default timezine (for this site) is 197 or Phoenix, hey thats my time zone $when = getdate($ts); return 'http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?month=' . $when['mon'] . '&day=' . $when['mday'] . '&year=' . $when['year'] . '&hour=' . $when['hours'] . '&min=' . $when['minutes'] . '&sec=0&p1=' . $tz; }
