Hi,

I am looking for a way to find out the number of minutes between two times.

The times are in the format of "10:00 AM" and "12:00 PM" which are flexible to change
(being used in a event planner).

I have been trying to find a solution for hours, but am yet to find one.

Any help would be appreciated.

Regards.

You could always convert the text being sent into a unix timestamp and then do math based on that... See PHP: strtotime - Manual

The timestamps are in seconds, so just subtract and divide by 60 to get minutes until the event.

Thanks for that. I had tried that function earlier and it kept returning null...

Found it out it was completely my fault as I was adding AM and PM to the end of 24 hour dates eg. 13:00 PM.

I knew it had to be something simple.


Thanks agian.
