[php] Time-Based CSS

[ChosenOne]

I remember some sites were showing my current time(from my computer) is there a way to implement that code into this one?


Good work

well, I've modify the code for the CSS stylesheets to change everyday.

here is the sample for phpbb

<link href="{T_THEME_PATH}/
<!-- PHP -->
$today = Date('D');
switch ($today){
    case 'Mon';
        echo 'style1.css';
    breaK;
    case 'Tue';
        echo 'style2.css';
    breaK;
    case 'Wed';
        echo 'style3.css';
    breaK;
    case 'Thu';
        echo 'style4.css';
    breaK;
    case 'Fri';
        echo 'style5.css';
    breaK;
    case 'Sat';
        echo 'style6.css';
    breaK;
    default;
        echo 'style1.css';
    breaK;
}
<!-- ENDPHP -->
" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="screen, projection" />

what about a javascript touch?

<script language="javascript">
<!--
Stamp = new Date();

var Hours;
Hours = Stamp.getHours();
if (Hours >= 7 && Hours < 19) {
document.write('<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"  href="/static/css/default_dayt.css" />');
}
else {
document.write('<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"  href="/static/css/default_night.css" />');
}

//-->
</script>

Your best of using javascript for this, unless your detecting the users timezone and using PHP's functionality such as set_timezone() etc.. because me and jay would see a day version but people in other countries will see the day version even if it is night time !

As someone pointed out it would only show the server time.

I will take vb as an example, say your forum time is set differently you can use the var $vboptions[timeoffset] - which is the forum time offset

(im sure there is one for users which will fix the issue of users with different time zones)

Anyways good code jay, most of these ive seen is in javascript.
