The issue I have is that I need to pass something like "1:50" as the
$timeVar variable.
Here's what I have...
function timeToInt($timeVar)
{
echo "alert('$timeVar')";
// sscanf($timeVar,"%d:%d",$hours,$minutes);
// $intVar = ($hours * 60) + $minutes;
// return($intVar);
// echo "alert('$intVar')";
}
and the call is on an onblur in an inpout text field as such...
<input type="text" onblur="<?=timeToInt('1:50')?>">
I have just put "1:50" as an example as this is the format I need to pass to
the function.
If I leave the function as shown above with all the comments I get the
initial echoed alert. As soon as I remove the comment from the second line
(sscanf) the function fails and I don't get any echoed alert.
Am I using the sscanf correctly?
Thanks for your help in this.
