Eh.. I used this once and thought it was great. There are so many UNIX time convertors which give random results. Anyway, I captured a http trace and IMMEDIATELY entered the timestamp here and it gave me a time corresponding to the capture time... result!.... then I did a refresh a couple of minutes later with the same timestamp and it gave me the current time. Maybe I'm doing something wrong but from what I can see it's only giving me the time that it's getting from the CPU clock. Am I doing something wrong?

Adrian, "Wednesday, April 18th 2007, 23:00:00 (GMT +1)" is the same as "Thursday, April 19th 2007, 0:00:00 (GMT +2)", and both correspond to the timestamp you posted, therefore the converter works as advertised. Since taking summer/winter time into account is so complicated, it's up to you to select a different time zone if you wish - ie to choose GMT +2 if the result displayed in GMT +1 is during the summer.
Name: Adrian	none
The link before is just useful if you need to work with Middle-Europe-Times (GMT+1)
Name: Adrian	none
****... makes no difference between summer/wintertime Example? Serverlocation -> Switzerland We have GMT+1 If we give now the timestamp: 1176933600 in this tool, what we get? Exactly: Wednesday, April 18th 2007, 23:00:00 (GMT +1) ...hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm, I tell you a secret... every Apache Server will tell you that 1176933600 is actually the 19th April 2007 at 00:00:00 This script forgets that Middle Europe has in the summertime 2 hours difference to GMT. Be careful with it, better use the timestamp converter on this site: http://www.01-scripts.de/timestamp.php ...or check the dates yourself in php to be 100% sure.

The "8-byte timestamp" is a Windows stamp found in index.dat files in the FILETIME format, which is 100 nanosecond increments from 00:00:00 on Jan. 1, 1601.
Name: Erik Anderson	none
Well, what exactly is an "8-byte timestamp"? It's not a "struct timeval" as the last half of the number doesn't represent a value under 1000000. It's not an MSAD timestamp as I ran the calculations through (with both byte orders) and got a huge number. It's not a double-precision floating point number as it would be badly negative. And it's not that weird coded decimal stuff described in "U.S. Patent 6803866". So before we can tell you how to translate it into a UNIX timestamp, you have to tell us where the heck you got it.
Name: Conversion Question	none
If I have a hex value of an 8-byte time stamp, how do I go about converting it to a UNIX Timestamp? For example, what does "A0C4 3953 01DC C501" converts to?

Quote: Beatnik, thanks for the reply. I apologize if I missed your point, but seems like my question remains: how could GMT -8 produces a larger timestamp than GMT +8 for the same date? GMT +8 is supposed to be 16 hours ahead of GMT -8, therefore has larger timestamp...no? The key to understanding is that the timestamp is the number of seconds since January 1, 1970 irregardless of the timezone. Looking at a world timzone map and understanding the rotation of Earth and when the sun comes up on each timezone may help you understand. GMT - 8 means that you have to subtract 8 hours from the time in GMT - 8 to get the actual GMT time. GMT + 8 means that you have to add 8 hours from the time in GMT + 8 to get the actual GMT time. GMT - 8 is actually 8 hours ahead of GMT and GMT + 8 is actually 8 hours behind GMT. GMT - 8 is to the east of GMT, so when it is 1AM in GMT it will be 9AM in GMT -8. 9AM will give a larger timestamp than 1AM. GMT + 8 is to the west of GMT, so when it is 1AM in GMT it will be 7PM on the previous day in GMT +8, giving a smaller timestamp.
Name: TheBlip	none
William, Let's say we want to convert 5:00PM GMT +8 and 5:00PM GMT -8. When it is 5:00PM at GMT +8, it will be a certain timestamp.. (eg. 26467365) It will take another 16 hours before it becomes 5:00PM in GMT-8. And that is why the timestamp for 5:00PM GMT -8 is larger than 5:00PM GMT +8. --------Start Quote---------- Beatnik, thanks for the reply.

Name: Peter	none

Name: William Khoe	none
Thanks Beatnik. That makes sense now. Unix timestamp is taken at GMT (UTC), so you gotta convert everything to GMT first, then count the seconds since January 1, 1970. You are quite clear, just have to read it couple times Thanks again!
Name: Beatnik	none
Sorry if I wasn't clear, W Khoe; I have a habit of not being clear.... :-\ Watch the outputs that are given. All the clues are there. I enter Sunday, January 1st 2006, 0:00:00 for both my tests. Note the time is midnight. Results: Sunday, January 1st 2006, 0:00:00 (GMT) translates to 1136073600 Sunday, January 1st 2006, 8:00:00 (GMT - translates to 1136102400 Note how, although I had not altered the time from 0:00:00, it changed the time to 8:00:00 on my second test. This shows why you have a greater number when you go back. All timestamps are GMT: Midnight in GMT means it is 4pm in (where-ever GMT-8 is). However, when it is midnight (where-ever GMT-8 is), it is actually 8am in GMT. Thus midnight on the -ve side of GMT will have a greater timestamp with this tool, and those on the +ve side of GMT will have a lesser timestamp. Or did I just confuse everyone more ?

I don't suppose you can have it remember the timezone like it does for the rest of the options after you submit to create a timestamp
Name: Chuck	none
That thing should reject entries exceeding the numeric range of a signed integer. Currently it silently converts to a signed value and misguides anyone using it.
Name: Eddie	none
In answer to William Khoe: Quote: how could GMT -8 produce a larger timestamp than GMT +8 for the same date? GMT +8 is supposed to be 16 hours ahead of GMT -8, therefore has larger timestamp...no? Let's review what Beatnik said: Quote: If you are using this page to get a straight conversion, you should remember that the true timestamp must be set at GMT. The timestamp is constant through all timezones. It is the timezone offset (eg GMT-6) that give your time in your locale. If you are doing server work - your server will hold the GMT timestamp, and will convert when READING the timestamp, to your servers timezone offset. Always store in GMT. What he is saying is that timestamps are always stored in GMT. This means that when you create a timestamp from a date, first you have to convert that date/time to the time it was at that instant in Greenwich, and then get the number of seconds from that. So, for example.. if we have the date January 1, 2006, at 1:01:01 in the western united states (GMT -7 timezone, which is west of greenwich).... at that exact instant, it was Sunday, January 1st 2006, 8:01:01 in Greenwich. ... this produces the timestamp 1136102461. Doing the same thing (using the same starting date/time) only with a different timezone (GMT +7, which is EAST of Greenwich), .... at that exact instant, it was Saturday, December 31st 2005, 18:01:01 in Greenwich.... Then we convert that to a timestamp, and we get 1136052061. What this means (using more general terms) is that you can think of timestamps as being absolute instances in time, regardless of timezone. So if you compare the instance in time when it was Jan 01, 2006 01:01:01 at a place east of greenwich to the instance in time when it was Jan 01, 2006 01:01:01 at a place west of greenwich.... obviously, the place in the east reached that date/time first (using an absolute point of view)... and the timestamp will reflect that. .... The seemingly contradictory results happen because the input date is relative, and the timestamp is absolute. In other words, it was the new year first in the east (smaller timestamp), and then it was the new year in the west (larger timestamp). (The east was in the new year before the west).... and the timestamps reflect that. Hope this helps

A lot of comments. Don't know if anyone commented on the first comment. (or is it the last? - the top one on the page as I'm viewing!). This page includes timezone. If you are using this page to get a straight conversion, you should remember that the true timestamp must be set at GMT. The timestamp is constant through all timezones. It is the timezone offset (eg GMT-6) that give your time in your locale. If you are doing server work - your server will hold the GMT timestamp, and will convert when READING the timestamp, to your servers timezone offset. Always store in GMT.

Hi! I think this is a good script as-is, as noone can make scripts for you, unless they are making an entire CMS for you. It's very simple, but it may help some beginners.. I'm currently making a bit more advanced project, with php/mysql, where I have one table with every country in the world and one table with timezones. I then run queries to get the two-digit country-name (US, UK, NO, DK, etc.). If I find more than one row (like mexico has), I let the user select his timezone.. If there is only one row (like Norway (NO)), I just select that as default and insert into the users table. it's still in development.. my project uses the putenv("TZ=...

Guglielmo: 1057014000 in GMT +1 corresponds to 1057010400 in GMT. What the script does is take the date/time you enter, convert it to GMT (in this case move it back an hour), and convert the result which is in GMT to a Unix timestamp. The timestamp which you are claiming is "right" is not a GMT timestamp, but a GMT +1 timestamp.

Quote: I noticed the form to convert a date into a timestamp retains the user's changes after it is submitted - good. However, the timezone select list always defaults back to GMT. It's not really a bug - I know that's what happens. Unless this is a real problem for anyone, I won't be changing the way it works.

Because he's removing the front three numbers instead of the last three numbers.

Quote: my timestamps have 13 numbers. The program only uses 10. When I drop the first or the last 3 numbers I get dates vom 1985 to 2038. An example is e.g. 1062483880674. can anyone help? From what I've been able to find, the three extra digits are due to the timestamp being in microseconds, as opposed to seconds. However I don't see why it should cause a problem to remove the last three digits...

From http://www.php.net/date : Quote: Note: The valid range of a timestamp is typically from Fri, 13 Dec 1901 20:45:54 GMT to Tue, 19 Jan 2038 03:14:07 GMT. (These are the dates that correspond to the minimum and maximum values for a 32-bit signed integer). On Windows this range is limited from 01-01-1970 to 19-01-2038.

this is a really helpful tool, but it doesnt let me convert timestamps for the years after 1937. e.g. if i try to find timestamp for 31st december 1038, it shows the date of 1969 and timestamp of -1 . is this a bug in php? or is it not year 3000 complaint?

Nice tool. A modification that may be useful, would be to add a dropdown box for users to select there timezone. IE 1010342461 would appear as Sunday, January 6th 2002, 12:41:01 PM in CST

Daniel: I know, it was just a note to people using this, not a bug report
Name: Daniel	use contact form
Yes, because PHP's date function accepts the input. If people want to enter invalid dates that's their problem

FYI you can use out-of-range input for the date input fields and still get a valid timestamp / date.

Oh that's a nice one. It'd be cool if it put the current values in it instead of "0" if i don't enter anything.

There is no real "code": it is simply a script which makes use of the mktime (http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.mktime.php) and date functions in PHP (http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.date.php).
