localtime
(PHP 4, PHP 5)
localtime — Get the local time
Description
array localtime
([ int $timestamp
[, bool $is_associative
]] )
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
-
"tm_min" - minutes
-
"tm_hour" - hour
-
"tm_mday" - day of the month
Months are from 0 (Jan) to 11 (Dec) and days of the week are from 0 (Sun) to 6 (Sat).
-
"tm_mon" - month of the year, starting with 0 for January
-
"tm_year" - Years since 1900
-
"tm_wday" - Day of the week
-
"tm_yday" - Day of the year
-
"tm_isdst" - Is daylight savings time in effect
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 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:
