PHP: Convert Seconds to Format 00:00:00
Question by Guest | 2014-09-30 at 22:13
I have a time given in seconds (for example 3611) and I would like to output this value in the format 00:00:00 (hours:minutes:seconds), which would be 01:00:11 for 3611. The reason is, that the value should be displayed in a more readable form on my website.
Is there any simple PHP function for a conversion like this?

For example, you can work with the PHP functions date(), sprintf()/printf() or a combination of date() and mktime():
$t = 3611; // way 1 echo date("H:i:s", $t); // way 2 echo date("H:i:s", mktime(0, 0, 3611)); // way 3 echo sprintf("%02d:%02d:%02d", floor($t/3600), floor($t/60)%60, $t%60);Each of those lines will result in the output "01:00:11".
I have already explained the functionality of the functions used in this example in the answers of this question in detail.
