Thanks voyager and andreychek,

But it breaks :(

This is where I started off before devolving into that nasty nested "if" business. Running that with a start date of today and a start time that's past and a ending date of today and a time that's yet to come results in a "It's before my time!".

i.e.

It's now july 7 2001 and time is 7:43. With lower end of range set for midnight today and the upper end of range is set for noon today.

Variable results are:

$min_time = 997160400

$max_time = 997200000

$now = 994506189

Or am I missing something?
