localtime
(PHP 4, PHP 5)
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
<?php
$localtime = localtime();
$localtime_assoc = localtime(time(), true);
print_r($localtime);
print_r($localtime_assoc);
?>
The above example will output something similar to:
Array ( [0] => 24 [1] => 3 [2] => 19 [3] => 3 [4] => 3 [5] => 105 [6] => 0 [7] => 92 [8] => 1 ) Array ( [tm_sec] => 24 [tm_min] => 3 [tm_hour] => 19 [tm_mday] => 3 [tm_mon] => 3 [tm_year] => 105 [tm_wday] => 0 [tm_yday] => 92 [tm_isdst] => 1 )
