Hi,

In PHP, I have two times (eg. 2215) and (eg. 0020), how do you find out whether a third time (eg. 2316) is between this period?

I've tried different combinations of using date() and mktime() but I can't quite get it working. Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks,

Aren't times comparable in PHP (i.e. with the greater-than and less-than operators)? I'm not a huge PHPer these days, but I thought that worked.

I deal w/ things that use this alot (unfortunately) and the easiest solution is this:
start1 <= end2 && start2 <= end1

So in your example you could do:
if ( 0020 <= 2316 && 2316 <= 2215) {}

if you've got an actual date & time convert it to unix timestamp and then compare.

This is a language independent way, if someone's got an easier way w/ php I'd love to hear it.
