How do I insert code into code

Hi all, I am a php newbie and a bit stumped. I am trying to insert a time and date peice of code into a php script to modofy it but I cannot get ti to work.
Please could someone give a pointer as to what is wrong here?

Many thanks :-)

Original code:

database_querySelect($sqlResultCount,$rows);

$resultCount = $rows[0]["resultcount"];

$banner["h2"] = translate("&nbsp;<font color='#008000'><strong>search results-on CLOCK CODE HERE</strong></font>")."&nbsp;";

if ($resultCount)
{
$resultFrom = ($offset+1);

$resultTo = ($offset+$config_resultsPerPage);

if ($resultTo > $resultCount) $resultTo = $resultCount;

and this is the php clock code to go where it says CLOCK CODE HERE:

echo date('l jS \of F Y \a\t ');
putenv("TZ=Europe/London");
echo date("h:i a")."\n";

What kind of error does it give you? also please use PHP code tags.

database_querySelect($sqlResultCount,$rows);

$resultCount = $rows[0]["resultcount"];

$banner["h2"] = translate("&nbsp;<font color='#008000'><strong>search results-on CLOCK CODE HERE</strong></font>")."&nbsp;";

if ($resultCount)
{
$resultFrom = ($offset+1);

$resultTo = ($offset+$config_resultsPerPage);

if ($resultTo > $resultCount) $resultTo = $resultCount;

and this is the php clock code to go where it says CLOCK CODE HERE:

echo date('l jS \of F Y \a\t ');
putenv("TZ=Europe/London");
echo date("h:i a")."\n";

Sorry, there is no error displayed on the page it just doesn't display anything as if it isn't there.. By php tags do you mean the <?php-?> tags?

Thanks.

Anyone?

does PHP run at all?

Hello, thanks for replying, the page works fine but the problem is I do not know how to place the clock code into the other php code so that it will display.. Although the page works the clock does not show in the browser :-(

usually you put that in your top level script, so that it renders in the appropriate place.

So should it work if I just insert it like this-as it doesn't appear to?

database_querySelect($sqlResultCount,$rows);

$resultCount = $rows[0]["resultcount"];

$banner["h2"] = translate("&nbsp;<font color='#008000'><strong>search results-on <?php echo date('l jS \of F Y \a\t ');
putenv("TZ=Europe/London");
echo date("h:i a")."\n"; ?></strong></font>")."&nbsp;";

if ($resultCount)
{
$resultFrom = ($offset+1);

$resultTo = ($offset+$config_resultsPerPage);

You could do something like the following to get what your wanting.

$date1 = date('l jS \of F Y \a\t ');
putenv("TZ=Europe/London");
$date2 = date("h:i a")."\n";

$banner["h2"] = translate("&nbsp;<font color='#008000'><strong>search results-on ".$date1.$date2."</strong></font>")."&nbsp;";

Let me know if this worked or not. :)

Amazing, I cannot thank you enough, it worked perfectly straight away, I am going to try to learn more about php, I am familiar with javascript but php is new to me and seems a far better way of getting clever stuff into a page getting the server to do the work rather than the browser.

Thanks again :-)))))

Not a problem at all! :)

PHP is a really fun language and can do some amazing things. You're in for a treat if you ask me lol.

:-) I will come back and let you know how I get on!

Thanks again.
