Example #1 date_sunrise() example
<?php
/* calculate the sunrise time for Lisbon, Portugal
Latitude: 38.4 North
Longuitude: 9 West
Cenith ~= 90
offset: +1 GMT
*/
echo
date
(
"D M d Y"
).
', sunrise time : '
.
date_sunrise
(
time
(),
SUNFUNCS_RET_STRING
,
38.4

Example #2 No sunrise
<?php
$solstice
=
strtotime
(
'2017-12-21'
);
var_dump
(
date_sunrise
(
$solstice
,
SUNFUNCS_RET_STRING
,

, -
53.537222
));
The above example will output:
