RE: Adding times in php

I would consider adding either:

1. a virtual column in the sql to add up the times
2. issue another sql statement to get a total
3. store a total in a cookie / session initially

Hi All

I have two tables with columns of times that it took to perform tasks eg:

  8:40
  6:50
  8:30
10:55
---------
34:55 total time taken to complete the tasks in hours and minutes

I am able to add the times with sql however I need to add the totals to cone
up with a grand total and because of the makeup of the tables I cant use
sql. I am there for going to have to use php code and this is where the
problem comes in because in sql there is SEC_TO_TIME and TIME_TO_SEC
functions that allow easy addition of the times but I cant find an
equivalent in php. Does any one know of a way that I can add to times
together in php.
