Template Hook help in Plugins

Hi guys

im in a little need of support

this is my php script

PHP Code:


		
			
$date1 = '2007-11-20 08:00:00';
$date2 = date('Y-m-d H:i:s');
$ts1 = strtotime($date1);
$ts2 = strtotime($date2);
$seconds_diff = $ts2 - $ts1; 
$seconds_diff = floor($seconds_diff/3600/24); echo " Day " . $seconds_diff; echo " of the new world "

and i need to use $template_hook[forumhome_above_forums]

i have tried

PHP Code:


		
			
$template_hook[forumhome_above_forums] .='
$date1 = '2007-11-20 08:00:00';
$date2 = date('Y-m-d H:i:s');
$ts1 = strtotime($date1);
$ts2 = strtotime($date2);
$seconds_diff = $ts2 - $ts1; 
$seconds_diff = floor($seconds_diff/3600/24); echo " Day " . $seconds_diff; echo " of the new world "
';

i get the following error

PHP Code:


		
			
Parse error:  syntax error, unexpected T_LNUMBER in /includes/class_bootstrap.php(430) : eval()'d code on line 10

but can't see where i have gone wrong, can someone help ?

Just do this in place of the echo calls at the end:

Code:

$template_hook[forumhome_above_forums] .= " Day " . $seconds_diff . " of the new world ";

and if you want newlines before or after, insert <br /> in the string.

BTW, you don't need to make a string for the current date then convert it to a timestamp, you can just call time(), or use the vb constant TIMENOW (which is just set from time()). So you could do this:

Code:

$seconds_diff = TIMENOW - strtotime('2007-11-20 08:00:00');

$seconds_diff = floor($seconds_diff/3600/24);

and if you wanted to be a little more efficient, you could find out what the value of strtotime('2007-11-20 08:00:00') is and use it as a constant.

Thank you, it worked a dream :)
