// I have to add together hundreds of shift times (for a timesheet
// application), shift times are given in hours and minutes - the solution
// is to convert each shift to minutes (1.45 -> 105, 0.45-> 45), add them
// together (105+45 -> 150), and used the minutes to hours function to
// return the total hours and minutes (150 -> 2.30).
// More Exmaples :
// 1.5 hours is taken to mean 1.05, 1 hour and 5 minutes.
// 0.65 hours means 65 minutes

Seems a little counter-intuitive to me.
1.5 should represent 1.5 hours, NOT 1 hour and 5 minutes... even 1.05 would make more sense. Better, still, why not accept multiple formats:
`44` = 44 hours
`3.75` = 3 and 3/4 hours
`8:24` = 8 hours, 24 minutes
Then wrap it all in one function:
<?
function h2m($input)
{
if(ereg(`:`,$input))
{
// we`re working in h:m mode
list($h,$m) = explode(`:`,$input);
$mins = ($h * 60) + $m;
}
else
{
// we`ve been passed a decimal or whole number
$mins = $input * 60;
$mins = round($mins);
}
return $mins;
}
// Examples:
echo "3.75 hours is ".h2m(`3.75`)." minutes <br />\n";
echo "3:27 hours is ".h2m(`3:27`)." minutes <br />\n";
echo "44 hours is ".h2m(`44`)." minutes <br />\n";
?>
Obviously some more format checking could be done, but you get the idea.
