In this tutorial, we will create a Simple Convert Hour To Year using PHP. This code will calculate the given total hour into a year value when the user clicks the convert button. The system uses a PHP POST method to initiate a specific formula that calculates the given hour value by multiplying it by 3600 divides the total to (365*24*3600). This is a user-friendly kind of program feel free to modify it.
We will be using PHP as a scripting language and interpreter that is used primarily on any web server, including xamp, wamp, etc. It is being used on any popular website, and it has a modern technology that can be easily used by the next generation.
Getting Started:
First, you have to download & install XAMPP or any local server that runs PHP scripts. Here’s the link for the XAMPP server https://www.apachefriends.org/index.html.
And, this is the link for the bootstrap that I used for the layout design https://getbootstrap.com/.
Creating The Interface
This is where we will create a simple form for our application. To create the shapes, copy and write it into your text editor, then save it as index.php.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8" name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1" />
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css/bootstrap.css" />
</head>
<body>
<nav class="navbar navbar-default">
<div class="container-fluid">
<a class="navbar-brand" href="https://sourcecodester.com">Sourcecodester</a>
</div>
</nav>
<div class="col-md-3"></div>
<div class="col-md-6 well">
<h3 class="text-primary">PHP - Simple Convert Hour To Year</h3>
<hr style="border-top:1px dotted #ccc;"/>
<div class="col-md-2"></div>
<div class="col-md-8">
<form method="POST" action="">
<center><label>Enter a hour</label></cemnter>
<center><input type="number" name="hour" style="width:200px;" class="form-control" min="0" required="required"/></center>
<br />
<center><button class="btn btn-primary" name="convert">Convert</button></center>
</form>
<br />
<?php include'convert.php'?>
</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>Creating the Main Function
This code contains the main function of the application. This code will convert the hour into year when the button is clicked. To make this just copy and write these block of codes below inside the text editor, then save it as convert.php
<?php
if(ISSET($_POST['convert'])){
$hour = $_POST['hour'];
$cal = $hour*3600;
$toYear = $cal/(365*24*3600);
$year = round($toYear, 2);
echo "<center><label style='font-size:20px;'>There are <span class='text-primary' style='font-size:27px;'>".$hour."hr</span> in <span class='text-primary' style='font-size:27px;'>".$year." year</span></label></center>";
}
