function timeToSecond($time){
    $time_parts=explode(":",$time);
    $seconds= ($time_parts[0]*86400) + ($time_parts[1]*3600) + ($time_parts[2]*60) + $time_parts[3] ;

function secondToTime($time){

    if($seconds<10) {
        $seconds="0".$seconds;

    $days     = ($time - $hours) / 24;

不知道为什么还没有提出这个建议，但是这里有一个使用DateInterval的变体，它的优点是秒> 86400不是问题(只是不要期望小时< 24)

noteable:该函数返回DateInterval对象，因此输出格式由调用者决定

function seconds2interval($seconds) {
    $s = intval($seconds);
    $hrs = floor($s / 3600);
    $min = floor(($s - ($hrs * 3600)) / 60);
    $sec = $s % 60;
    
    $duration = sprintf('PT%dH%dM%dS', $hrs, $min, $sec);
    $d = new DateInterval($duration);
    
    return $d;
}

$d = seconds2interval(93837.3113);  
echo $d->format('%H:%I:%s'); // 26:03:57

给你

function format_time($t,$f=':') // t = seconds, f = separator 
{
  return sprintf("%02d%s%02d%s%02d", floor($t/3600), $f, ($t/60)%60, $f, $t%60);
}

echo format_time(685); // 00:11:25

任何人在未来寻找这个，这给了最初的海报要求的格式。

$init = 685;
$hours = floor($init / 3600);
$hrlength=strlen($hours);
if ($hrlength==1) {$hrs="0".$hours;}
else {$hrs=$hours;} 

$minutes = floor(($init / 60) % 60);
$minlength=strlen($minutes);
if ($minlength==1) {$mins="0".$minutes;}
else {$mins=$minutes;} 

$seconds = $init % 60;
$seclength=strlen($seconds);
if ($seclength==1) {$secs="0".$seconds;}
else {$secs=$seconds;} 

echo "$hrs:$mins:$secs";

这个函数是有用的，你可以扩展它:

function formatSeconds($seconds) {

if(!is_integer($seconds)) {
    return FALSE;
}

$fmt = "";

$days = floor($seconds / 86400);
if($days) {
    $fmt .= $days."D ";
    $seconds %= 86400;
}

$hours = floor($seconds / 3600);
if($hours) {
    $fmt .= str_pad($hours, 2, '0', STR_PAD_LEFT).":";
    $seconds %= 3600;
}

$mins = floor($seconds / 60 );
if($mins) {
    $fmt .= str_pad($mins, 2, '0', STR_PAD_LEFT).":";
    $seconds %= 60;
}

$fmt .= str_pad($seconds, 2, '0', STR_PAD_LEFT);

return $fmt;}

<?php
$time=3*3600 + 30*60;


$year=floor($time/(365*24*60*60));
