Date & Time 90 minutes ago

Would someone be able to help me with the DATE command syntax to know
what the date and time was 90 minutes ago? I am trying to assign these
values into two variables:

$date_90_minutes_ago
$time_90_minutes_ago

I am not sure how to handle midnight where if the time is 00:10:00
ninety minutes earlier is a day before. Thanks. Ron

Re: Date & Time 90 minutes ago

$date_90_minutes_ago = date('m/d/Y',mktime()-(60*90));
$time_90_minutes_ago = date('h:i:s',mktime()-(60*90));

60 seconds * 90 minutes.

RE: Date & Time 90 minutes ago

Bastien's example is probably the quickest and easiest. I just wanted to point out that you can use math within the mktime() function as well in case the relative date/time you need isn't "right now".

$month = 1;
$day = 19;
$year = 2006;
$hour = 17;
$minute = 08;
$second = 05;

echo date("Y-m-d H:i:s", mktime($hour, $minute - 90, $second, $month, $day, $year));

It will even adjust for leap years I believe. You can add/subtract/etc any of those items and it's smart enough to figure out what the correct resulting date/time would be.
