How would I echo a message for an hour, or a minute?
I can't just use date/time, right? That would only display it for a second...?

What function would I use?
Sorry, I'm just not very good at times.

No function other than one of the unix timestamp creation functions to generate the timestamps needed (three in all: start, end, and now)

Use mktime and store it into $start and $end
then use a range
Code: Select all
$show_message = time() <= $end && time() >= $start
var_dump($show_message);
