Check where the current time is between a given time limit or not - PHP

Question

Hi there,

I want to change my website logo to something special on every Friday between night 8PM and 1AM. Theoretically 1AM is on the next day which is Saturday. How to do this with PHP ? Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

It is easy with strtotime() ;)

$current_time = strtotime('now');
if ($current_time > strtotime('friday this week 8:00pm') && $current_time < strtotime('saturday this week 1:00am')) {
    // Special logo
}
