Time sensitive passcodes in PHP

Hello, all!
I would like to know if there was a way to make time sensitive passcodes in PHP.
For example, this passcode would be generated by another PHP script, then given out to the customer to access protected areas of a website.
I am going to use this for a remote support feature for my clients, so that I don't have a bunch of people abusing my support program and network.

I know that I could probably just use a mysql database/PHP script that generates a key, saves it to the database, then when user logs in, it verifies it against the passcodes in the database by time and stuff...
But, if it's possible to make a time sensitive passcode in PHP, could someone lead me in the right direction

Thank you very much!
