PHP Code:


			
<?

// get the current time

$current_time=time();

echo $current_time;



// format time to current hour

// using "G" format for current hour 0-23

$current_hour=date("G",$current_time);

echo "<br>" . $current_hour;



// set variable based on hour

if($current_hour == 14 || $current_hour == 15) {

  $var = 50;

  echo "<br>" . $var;

}

?>

here's a good reference for the date() function
