localtime
Get the local time
Description
array localtime
([ int $timestamp = time()
[, bool $is_associative = false
]] )
Parameters
-
timestamp
-
The optional timestamp parameter is an
integer Unix timestamp that defaults to the current
local time if a timestamp is not given. In other
words, it defaults to the value of time.
-
is_associative
-
If set to FALSE or not supplied then the array is returned as a regular,
numerically indexed array. If the argument is set to TRUE then
localtime returns an associative array containing
all the different elements of the structure returned by the C
function call to localtime. The names of the different keys of
the associative array are as follows:
-
"tm_sec" - seconds, 0 to 59
-
"tm_min" - minutes, 0 to 59
-
"tm_hour" - hours, 0 to 23
-
"tm_mday" - day of the month, 1 to 31
-
"tm_mon" - month of the year, 0 (Jan) to 11 (Dec)
-
"tm_year" - years since 1900
-
"tm_wday" - day of the week, 0 (Sun) to 6 (Sat)
-
"tm_yday" - day of the year, 0 to 365
-
"tm_isdst" - is daylight savings time in effect?
Positive if yes, 0 if not, negative if unknown.
Errors/Exceptions
Every call to a date/time function will generate a E_NOTICE
if the time zone is not valid, and/or a E_STRICT
or E_WARNING message
if using the system settings or the TZ environment
variable. See also date_default_timezone_set
Examples
Example #1 localtime example
