mktime problems

Something isn't adding up...

[inveni0]

I'm trying to add three minutes to the current time. The following code:

$timestamp = date('i:s', mktime(date('H'),date('i'),date('s')+180,0,0,0));

outputs 59:59.

I have also tried:

$timestamp = date('i:s', mktime(date('H'),date('i')+3,date('s'),0,0,0));

to no avail. Any ideas?

Thanks!

to add three minutes to the current time try

$time = time() + 180;

. . . alternatively:

$time = strtotime("+3 minutes");
