Hello All, I am trying to figure out how to loop through 2 given times. I
have a start time and a end time and want to look through every X mins and
add a radio button. Below is my latest try, can someone please help me out?


$endTime = "17:00:00";
$currentTime="09:00:00";

$num_intervals = floor(($endTime - $currentTime) / 30);

You should convert your times to minutes so you can use minute
intervals... the following was written directly into the email and so it
is UNTESTED:

<?php

$bits = explode( ':', $currentTime );
$currentTime = $bits[0] * 60 + $bits[1];

$bits = explode( ':', $endTime );
$endTime = $bits[0] * 60 + $bits[1];

$interval = 15; // minutes
for( $i = $currentTime; $i <= $endTime; $i += $interval )
{
$time = floor( $i / 60 ).':'.($i % 60).':00';
}

?>

Adapt to fit your needs.

Note: I used a time interval like you state in your above description (X
mins). But the code you submitted used appeared to use number of time
slices instead.

Cheers,
Rob.
