I need to convert seconds into time since for a message board application.
"minutes ago, hours ago and days ago" etc.
I have capture the time of the original post and compared it to the time now getting seconds but having a little trouble working out the seconds into time. Have used calculations (/60 minute), (/3600 hour), and (/86400 hour) but the time remaining is bugging me.
I have a column in my Access db that stores a number which is supposed to be seconds. How can I convert the seconds to display mm:ss on my ASP page? For instance, if the number in the db is 300, I want it to display 5:00 on my page.
Now these are lengths of time, not current time (AM or PM), so I dont want it to display the AM or PM. I've tried format(rs("length"), "nn:ss") and that didnt work. Matter of fact Format(), FormatDateTime(), and FormatNumber() doesnt work on my page. I've been getting the 800a000d Type Mismatch error. What am I doing wrong? Code:
I'm having a problem with this code:
Code:
<input type="hidden" name="lastdate" value="<%=now%>">
not returning the "seconds" portion of time. It writes the date and time - but only to the minute. The seconds are 00 each time. Ex. 1/29/2005 1:47:23 PM is what I want and 1/29/2005 1:47:00 PM is what I'm getting.This is the result I'm getting on two separate DB's on two different servers. I'm sure there's some glaring problem I'm overlooking because I sure can't see it.
I'd like to find the time difference in seconds in my ASP-code, but can't find how to do this. In php you have the time() that give the seconds from 1.1.1970 (?) until now. Is there something like this in ASP too? I have found the DateDiff that one just gives days, right? I basicly want to have two variables, time1 and time2, and show the seconds between them.
View Replies View RelatedI have a simple calendar scipt that ask for time of event input. While I like the time feature I do not like the fact that it displays with seconds included.
Ex. Displays HR:MIN:SEC 5:05:30 PM
Desired display 5:05 PM
How do I get rid of the display showing seconds? I have changed the database format, but this does not seem to effect the disply on the asp page.
The code to show how long it took the page to generate in seconds ?!?, if you get onto the main page of this site, www.tgplus.net and loom at the left had side, it tells you how long it took the page 2 generate.

i use this code to convert the date format throw asp. so it could work well with me sql server Db Code:
strSQL="select * from Visit where convert(datetime,visitdate,103) = convert(datetime,'" & date() &"',103) ORDER BY visittime"

i need to get the number of seconds since Jan 1, 1990 or 70 or something to compare session times ... how do i get the timestamp in seconds ...
btw the msdn library is not a very good one ... does any one know an asp manual simillar to php (downloadble) ...
Code:
StartTime = FormatDateTime((rs("startdate")),3)
this returns
7/4/2006 1:00:00 AM
I need to trim the seconds off so it looks like this
7/4/2006 1:00 AM
Basically I have 2 times:
timea = (date here) 12:00:00 PM
timeb = now()
and what i want to do is compare the difference in seconds between the two.
But I'm struggling and the thought has crossed my mind that DateDiff only works with dates not times...
Code:
<%
Dim DateToCompareTo
DateToCompareTo = 4/10/2005 1:00:00 PM
%>
There are <%= DateDiff("s", Now(), DateToCompareTo) %> seconds left %>!
I have a variable that returns a certain number of seconds. Is there a function that can format this into something more useful?
For example, if the variable returned is 32, then it would format it to say "32 seconds"
If the variable is 312, then it would return "5 minutes and 12 seconds"
If the variable was 7315 then it would return "2 hours, 1 minute, and 55 seconds"
And so on.
Is there a way to response.redirect to a url within 5 seconds or something, so its not right away? I was thinking meta refresh, but everywhere I go online it says that meta refreshes are not a good idea.

What is the best way to do an ASP/sleep for 8 seconds (pause script for 8 seconds)? I have tried the following:
EndTime = Now() + (8 / (24 * 60* 60)) '8 seconds
Do While Now() < EndTime
'Do nothing
Loop
But unfortunately that keeps the CPU at 100% for that time. I need something that doesn't impact the CPU, as this delay will be in a while loop that will execute continuously for a few days.
Been playing with the function DateDiff, and with it it's easy to calculate the difference in years/months/days between two dates. However, if i wanted to calculate the difference in Years, Months, Days, Hours, Seconds (a la Ebay bids) how can I do this? Is it easy or complicated?

View Replies View RelatedI need to get the number of seconds when subtracting two date/times.
With the code I am using below I subtract the two date/times and end
up with a total of days like "1.56".
Then when I multiply it to get
the number of seconds I am not getting an accurate number. I should
only have whole numbers of seconds with nothing past the decimal
point. I would like to be able to subtract the two date/times and get
the number of seconds without multiplying to get it. Is this possible?
Does anyone have a better more accurate way to do this? Code:

Currently working on a ASP for a friend, which requires the date and
time on it. It pulls in entries from an Access Database with dates and
times in the format of:
"Fri Oct 17 18:02:46 2003"
However my date and time on the ASP page is displayed as:
"Friday, October 17, 2003 18:02:46"
using the script:
"<%Session.LCID = 1033%>
<%=FormatDateTime(Date(), vbLongDate)%>
<%Session.LCID = 2057%>
<%=time()%>"
Anyone know how to change this script, fully or partly to produce the
date and time on the format that's in the access database i.e. "Fri Oct 17
18:02:46 2003" Code:

View Replies View RelatedWhen the Form is submitted I use the Date() and Time() functions to put the date and time into the Body part of the e-mail. The time reported is three hours earlier than the time at which the Form is actually submitted.
I understand these functions are evaluated on the server so the server must be in a time zone three hours earlier than where I am . Is there any way I can get the local time at the location where the user is actually located. ?
Any some tools or sample codes drop down asp script execute time and
database connection time ?
I'm trying to do a very simple code that converts the server time into a time zone of your choice.
<%
dim h 'Current Hour
dim i ' Time Zone Increase - add or subtract hours
dim r 'Result Here
h = Hour(Now)
i = + 2
r = h + i
%>
but obvisouly i'm having trouble with the time zone convert.
I am trying to compare the NOW time with a "deadline" time. Please help. Just not sure why this is not working. I need to be able to say IF IT'S BEFORE 9:30 TODAY, IT'S OKAY TO ADD SOMETHING. IF IT'S AFTER 9:30 TODAY, YOU MUST ADD IT TOMORROW.
CODE:
nowtime=now()
deadlinetime=formatdatetime(now(),2) + " 8:30:00 AM"
response.write "NOW: " & nowtime & "<BR>"
response.write "Deadline: " & deadlinetime & "<BR>"
if nowtime<deadlinetime then response.write "can send out today" end if
if nowtime>deadlinetime then response.write "must send out tomorrow" end
if
RESULTS:
NOW: 1/18/2007 8:51:43 AM
Deadline: 1/18/2007 8:30:00 AM
can send out today
As you can see, NOW is GREATER THAN Deadline, so it should must send out tomorrow.
