Echo two variables based on other two variables

Im kind'of stuck on my project...can you help me?

What i'm trying to do is to echo in two different places either the variable $open_text and $open_image OR $close_text and $close_image based on current day and hour from the first statement.

I've already tried with switch -> case but it didn't work. Another idea was to use variables variable but i dont quite know how to adapt it to my project. What i have is:

<?php
date_default_timezone_set('Europe/Rome'); // timezone 

$weekday = date(l); // today

// Set open and closing time for each day of the week
if ($weekday == "Tuesday" || $weekday == "Wednesday" || $weekday == "Thursday" || $weekday == "Friday" || $weekday == "Saturday") {
    $morning_open_from = "09:15";
    $morning_open_to = "12:30";
    $afternoon_open_from = "15:00";
    $afternoon_open_to = "19:30";
}
else {
    $morning_open_from = "00:00";
    $morning_open_to = "00:00";
    $afternoon_open_from = "00:00";
    $afternoon_open_to = "00:00";
}

// check if the current time is before or after opening hours
if (date("H:i") > $morning_open_from || date("H:i") < $morning_open_to && date("H:i") > $afternoon_open_from || date("H:i") < $afternoon_open_to ) {
    $open_text = "<span style='font-size:14px; color: green;'>We're open, call us!</span>";
    $open_image = "<span style='font-size:20px; color: #000; font-family: Arial,Verdana,sans-serif;'>0123.456789</span>";
}

// show the checkout button
else {
    $close_text = "<span style='font-size:14px; color: red;'>We're closed, contact us!</span>";
    $close_image = "<span style='font-size:20px; color: #000; font-family: Arial,Verdana,sans-serif;'>[email protected]</span>";
}
?>

Thank you very much.

Here you go

    date_default_timezone_set('Europe/Rome'); // timezone 

    $weekday = date(l); // today        
    $openDays = array("Tuesday", "Wednesday", "Thursday", "Friday", "Saturday");
    $morning_open_from = "00:00";
    $morning_open_to = "00:00";
    $afternoon_open_from = "00:00";
    $afternoon_open_to = "00:00";

    // Set open and closing time for each day of the week        
    if (in_array($weekday, $openDays) ) {
        $morning_open_from = "09:15";
        $morning_open_to = "12:30";
        $afternoon_open_from = "15:00";
        $afternoon_open_to = "19:30";            
    } 

    // check if the current time is before or after opening hours
    if (( date("H:i") > $morning_open_from && date("H:i") < $morning_open_to )
            || 
            ( date("H:i") > $afternoon_open_from && date("H:i") < $afternoon_open_to )) {
        $open_text = "<span style='font-size:14px; color: green;'>We're open, call us!</span>";
        $open_image = "<span style='font-size:20px; color: #000; font-family: Arial,Verdana,sans-serif;'>0123.456789</span>";
    }

    // show the checkout button
    else {
        $close_text = "<span style='font-size:14px; color: red;'>We're closed, contact us!</span>";
        $close_image = "<span style='font-size:20px; color: #000; font-family: Arial,Verdana,sans-serif;'>[email protected]</span>";
    }

Wherever you want to echo you can either check to see if the variables are set before displaying them:

if(!empty($open_image)){
    echo $open_image
}

Or, since presumably $close_image or $open_image will be displayed in the same place you can just use the same variable:

if (date("H:i") > $morning_open_from || date("H:i") < $morning_open_to && date("H:i") > $afternoon_open_from || date("H:i") < $afternoon_open_to ) {
    $open_text = "<span style='font-size:14px; color: green;'>We're open, call us!</span>";
    $open_image = "<span style='font-size:20px; color: #000; font-family: Arial,Verdana,sans-serif;'>0123.456789</span>";
}else {
    $open_text = "<span style='font-size:14px; color: red;'>We're closed, contact us!</span>";
    $open_image = "<span style='font-size:20px; color: #000; font-family: Arial,Verdana,sans-serif;'>[email protected]</span>";
}

Then later you can just:

echo $open_text;
echo $open_image;
