Try This code:

You need to add only the array timimgs then add to todays timings:

$total = array('1:00','2:20','4:00','5:10');

 $sum = strtotime('00:00:00');
 $sum2=0;  
 foreach ($total as $v){

        $sum1=strtotime($v)-$sum;

        $sum2 = $sum2+$sum1;
    }

    $sum3=$sum+$sum2;

    echo date("H:i:s",$sum3);

Just add $sum2=0; before foreach (edited above). my result is 12:30:00 – Vikas Umrao Mar 03 '14 at 07:35
