将日期转换为时间戳[重复]

Question

• Convert one date format into another in PHP 15 answers

Okay so basically I have two variables one called $day and another called $time what I'm trying to do is convert both of these into a unix time-stamp so for example;

$day = 'Monday';
$time = '14:00:00';

So what I'm looking for is a $timestamp variable that would echo out the next Monday coming up at 14:00:00 in a unix timestamp format.

I'm guessing the hardest part of this would be the fact that the day is not a specific date more a day of the week meaning it would have to select the next monday coming up, or the next tuesday... for example.

Thanks for any help.

Answer 1

The constructor for the DateTime class is pretty good at figuring this sort of thing out:

<?php
$day = 'Monday';
$time = '14:00:00';

$date = new DateTime("next $day $time");
echo $date->getTimestamp();
// 1475503200
