localtime — Get the local time
The localtime() function returns an array identical to that of the structure returned by the C function call.
timestamp
The optional timestamp
parameter is an int Unix timestamp that defaults to the current local time if timestamp
is omitted or null
. In other words, it defaults to the value of time().
associative
Determines whether the function should return a regular, numerically indexed array, or an associative one.
If associative
is set to false
or not supplied then the array is returned as a regular, numerically indexed array. If associative
is set to true
then localtime() returns an associative array containing the elements of the structure returned by the C function call to localtime. The keys of the associative array are as follows:
0
to 59
0
to 59
0
to 23
1
to 31
0
(Jan) to 11
(Dec) 0
(Sun) to 6
(Sat) 0
to 365
0
if not, negative if unknown. Every call to a date/time function will generate a E_WARNING
if the time zone is not valid. See also date_default_timezone_set()

Example #1 localtime() example
<?php
$localtime = localtime();
$localtime_assoc = localtime(time(), true);
print_r($localtime);
print_r($localtime_assoc);
?>
The above example will output something similar to:
Array ( [0] => 24 [1] => 3 [2] => 19 [3] => 3 [4] => 3 [5] => 105 [6] => 0 [7] => 92 [8] => 1 ) Array ( [tm_sec] => 24 [tm_min] => 3 [tm_hour] => 19 [tm_mday] => 3 [tm_mon] => 3 [tm_year] => 105 [tm_wday] => 0 [tm_yday] => 92 [tm_isdst] => 1 )
