My time in mysql is in the form hh:mm:ss
How can I convert that to 12 hour time and also remove the seconds, because they are all 00.
ex:
14:30:00
mysql
$finalresult = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM events WHERE clubID IN (" . implode(',', $clubIDs) . ") ORDER BY date ASC, TIME(startTime) ASC");
while($finalrow = mysql_fetch_assoc($finalresult)) {
$originaltime = $finalrow['startTime'];
$newtime = TIME_FORMAT($originaltime, '%h:%i %p');
}
Use TIME_FORMAT:
SELECT TIME_FORMAT('14:30:00', '%h:%i %p'); /* 02:30 PM */
Change your PHP to something like this:
$finalresult = mysql_query("SELECT Field1, Field2, TIME_FORMAT(DateField, '%h:%i %p') AS TheTime FROM events WHERE clubID IN (" . implode(',', $clubIDs) . ") ORDER BY date ASC, TIME(startTime) ASC");
This involves getting rid of *
and specifying each field you want.
If it's a TIME
type, you can use the TIME_FORMAT
function.
To get the 12-hour time, without seconds:
TIME_FORMAT(myTime, '%h:%i')
A time of 14:24:38 will come out as 2:24
.
If you need the AM/PM designation now that you've converted to a 12-hour clock, simply add the %p
format code:
TIME_FORMAT(myTime, '%h:%i %p')
For this, a time of 14:24:38 will come out as 2:24 PM
.
