title: How to compare two 24 hour time
body: <p>I have two 24-hour time values and want to compare them using PHP. </p>
  
  <p>I have tried the following:</p>
  
  <pre><code>$time="00:05:00"; //5 minutes
  
  if($time1&lt;='00:03:00')
  {
   //do some work
  }
  else
  {
   //do something
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Is this the correct way to compare 2 time values using PHP?</p>
