Answer 2

The following codes can display total hours plus minutes and seconds accurately

$duration_in_seconds = 86401;
if($duration_in_seconds>0)
{
    echo floor($duration_in_seconds/3600).gmdate(":i:s", $duration_in_seconds%3600);
}
else
{
    echo "00:00:00";
}

Answer 3

write function like this to return an array

function secondsToTime($seconds) {

  // extract hours
  $hours = floor($seconds / (60 * 60));

  // extract minutes
  $divisor_for_minutes = $seconds % (60 * 60);
  $minutes = floor($divisor_for_minutes / 60);

  // extract the remaining seconds
  $divisor_for_seconds = $divisor_for_minutes % 60;
  $seconds = ceil($divisor_for_seconds);

  // return the final array
  $obj = array(
      "h" => (int) $hours,
      "m" => (int) $minutes,
      "s" => (int) $seconds,
   );

  return $obj;
}

then simply call the function like this:

secondsToTime(100);

output is

Array ( [h] => 0 [m] => 1 [s] => 40 )
