Question

I want to get Only Hours From date by using PHP & Cakephp function.

$date = "2011-07-26 20:05:00";

$hours = ?

Answer 1

By hours I’m assuming you mean if the time is 8PM or 20:00 hours like it is in your time string then…

$date = "2011-07-26 20:05:00";
$date = strtotime($date);
echo date('H', $date);

I’m not that familiar with PHP’s date formats so you’ll have to reference PHP.net for the correct formatting character for that.
