HTML Block - Timebased content

[Njit]

i'm using Smarty for my website. I'm trying to show some different content based on the time of day. But i'm doing something wrong with the logic i think.

I want to use these 3 timeframes (based on 24 hour period)

morning: 0600 - 1200
Afternoon: 1200 - 1800
Evening: 1800 - 0600

My HTML Block looks like this:

Code: Select all

<!-- It is now {$smarty.now|date_format:"%H:%M"} --> 

{if $smarty.now|date_format:"%H" >= 06 and $smarty.now|date_format:"%H" < 12 }{Showtime show='7'} 
{elseif $smarty.now|date_format:"%H" >= 12 and $smarty.now|date_format:"%H" < 18}{Showtime show='8'} 
{elseif $smarty.now|date_format:"%H" >= 18 and $smarty.now|date_format:"%H" < 06}{Showtime show='9'}{/if}

Your last elseif will never occur. Hours can never be bigger than 18 AND less than 6 at the same time.

You probably want to change the last AND to an OR.

Feeling stupid. Changed it to OR.
