That sure would be a maintenance headache. Plus probly only get you a
minable grade. You need to get your data in a strucure of some kind.
Stop coding for the data at hand. It will change.
$Rec[0]['name'] = 'Period 1';
$Rec[0]['start'] = '9 AM';
$Rec[0]['stop'] = '9:59 AM';
$Rec[1]['name'] = 'Period 2';
$Rec[1]['start'] = '10AM';
$Rec[1]['stop'] = '10:59 AM';
$timenow = strtotime('now');
foreach ($Rec as $key){
if(strtotime($key['start']) =< $timenow AND
strtotime($key['stop']) => $timenow){
$period = 'It is currently: '. $key['name'];
}
}
if(empty($period)){
$period = 'School is not currently in.';
}
