PHP - Set Time Zone?
How to set the time zone? All 3 shows the same time???
<?php date_default_timezone_set("Australia/Melbourne"); echo "time=" . time(); ?> <?php echo "time=" . time(); ?> <?php date_default_timezone_set("Antarctica/Palmer"); echo "time=" . time(); ?> Similar TutorialsHello, I tried to implement some PHP code to enable a web page to show "Dinner" specials versus "Lunch" specials based on the time. The business is located in the Eastern Time Zone, so I only need to routine to work based on Eastern Time (New York). What I am noticing is that the server is processing the lines of code so fast that the command to establish the correct time for the remaining code is not always being acknowledged. This line of code appears to be processing too fast for the remaining lines of code: date_default_timezone_set ( "America/New_York" ); Is there some additional code I can put in place to make sure the correct time is always ascertained? I need the $hourmin variable to always return a combination of hour + minute based on 24-hour time and Eastern Time zone. My code is as follows: <?php $name8 = file_get_contents("test/special8name.txt"); date_default_timezone_set ( "America/New_York" ); $gethour = date("H"); $getminutes = $gettimedate["minutes"]; $gettimedate = date(); $hourmin = $gethour . $getminutes; $currentday = date("l", time()); $currentdate = date("M j, Y"); if ($hourmin < 1500 && $currentday <> "Saturday" && $currentday <> "Sunday") { echo "<span class=\"namesred\">$name8 </span>"; } else if ( $hourmin > 1500 && $hourmin < 2300 && $currentday <> "Saturday" && $currentday <> "Sunday") { echo "<span class=\"namesblue\">$name8 </span>"; } else if ( $currentday == "Saturday" or $currentday == "Sunday") { echo "<span class=\"namesblue\">$name8 </span>"; } ?> Having a problem since the time change of 1 hour. Times now show 2:08 when it is 3:08 I am using: Code: [Select] date_default_timezone_set('EST'); date('g:i a'); Any way to fix this to show corrent time? Are time zones when calling the date function automatically decided based on where you live? Or is that something that I have to implement--Because the time is wrong according to my time zone. I am sorry I have absolutely no idea where this question fits in this forum bcoz its related to PHP , MySQL and Javascript... So here is my question .. I use MySql database to store posts.. where 'postdate and time' is saved using 'CURRENT_TIMESTAMP' of MySql that offcourse gives "2010-08-31 09:47:10" format... When I have to calculate when the post was posted just before loading the posts on users wall e.g. "2 min ago"... I take the 'postdate and time' from database then use strtotime() function in php to convert it to string you know since jan 1 1970. Now this time stamp is sent to javascript function which uses 'Date' Object to create current time and then 'getTime' to get the string like one Mentioned earlier. it then calculates the difference and displays it.. Just to inform you.. I used javascript to I may refresh "posted since" periodically using "SetInterval()" But the problem here arises. There is difference of 1 Hour and 24 Sec in both times....... Sorry If I confused you... But the problem is simple. In javascript date object and MySql --> strtotime() there is time difference... How I can correct it ??? please Help ... Codes: 1. function to convert str to time function change($date){ $time_early=strtotime($date); return $time_early; } 2. javascript Code to check "Post Since" function calc_difference() { $("[name=posttime]").each(function() { var current=$(this).attr("id"); localtimevalue = new Date(); d = localtimevalue.getTime(); var d= parseInt(d)/1000; var diff=d-parseInt(current); var diff=parseInt(diff); var min=parseInt(diff/60); var hours=parseInt(diff/3600); var days=parseInt(diff/86400); var months=parseInt(diff/2592000); var years=parseInt(diff/31104000); if( min==0 ){ $(this).text("Posted: "+diff +" seconds ago "); } if(min>0 && hours==0 && days==0 && months==0){ if(min==1){ $(this).text("Posted: a minute ago "); }else{ $(this).text("Posted: "+min +" minutes ago "); } } if(min>0 && hours>0 && days==0 && months==0){ if(hours==1){ $(this).text("Posted: an hour ago "); }else{ $(this).text("Posted: "+hours +" hours ago "); } } if(days>0 && months==0 && years==0){ if(days==1){ $(this).text("Posted: a day ago "); }else{ $(this).text("Posted: "+days +" days ago "); } } if(months>0 && years==0 ){ if(months==1){ $(this).text("Posted: a month ago "); }else{ $(this).text("Posted: "+months +" months ago "); } } if(years>0){ if(years==1){ $(this).text("Posted: a year ago "); }else{ $(this).text("Posted: "+years +" years ago "); } } }); } Javascript function is called on load and Jquery's .each function is used to update all post's time. Hi My code was working perfectly when my hosting company located in Japan. But i transfer to US(hostgator) and now my time zone changes asia/tokyo to America/Chicago. Therefore, all my codes, scripts and sites are following one day behind of Japan local time. Great appreciate for any help. My code is below: <?php $host = "localhost"; $user = "user"; $pass = "pass"; $data = "mysql_db"; $cn = mysql_connect($host, $user, $pass) or trigger_error(mysql_error(),E_USER_ERROR); mysql_select_db($data, $cn) or die("Could not Connect Database Please Try again later !!!"); mysql_query("set names utf-8", $cn); if(date("H:i:s") < '03:00:00') // Changes midnight 00:00:00 to 03:00:00 $midnight = 1; else $midnight = 0; $TODAY__ = mktime(0, 0, 0, date("n"), date("d") - $midnight, date("Y")); date_default_timezone_set('Asia/Tokyo'); ?> I am trying to get local date/time. In my php file I am setting my timezone using $timezone = "America/Toronto"; putenv ('TZ=' . $timezone); Then I use the following to get current date and time print_r (getdate()); but my date displays in GMT, What am I doing wrong? As in the code above I am in Toronto and I need EST. By using the function date_default_timezone_set() I am trying to set my timezone. Do I have to change anything else in any other files like php.ini? I have all the dates stored in my database as UTC and I want to retrieves these UTC date/time to show the local time zone. So, example, If I live in New York, I want it to show east coast time zone and not the Universal Time. Any idea? Purpose: To get time zone of a remote file in my time zone. I have to download a file daily (mp3, don't worry its legal!) from BBC. Problem is that sometimes BBC doesn't update the file and i have to download entire file to check if it has been updated or not. Hence i decided to code a page that gives me date and time of that remote file. I have successfully compiled the code (that i got from internet). But the time returns in EST. I want the time in IST (indian std time Asia/Calcutta). CURLINFO_FILETIME has bee used. Below is code. Pls suggest me how to convert EST to IST - Warning: I am a newbie. But i can follow instructions Code: [Select] <?php $curl = curl_init('http://wsdownload.bbc.co.uk/hindi/tx/32mp3/din_bhar.mp3'); //don't fetch the actual page, you only want headers curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_NOBODY, true); //stop it from outputting stuff to stdout curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true); // attempt to retrieve the modification date curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_FILETIME, true); $result = curl_exec($curl); if ($result === false) { die (curl_error($curl)); } $timestamp = curl_getinfo($curl, CURLINFO_FILETIME); if ($timestamp != -1) { //otherwise unknown echo "BBC Hindi was last modified" . date("d-m-Y h:i:s A T", $timestamp); //etc } ?> I have used it with custom getRemoteFileSize function he - Code: [Select] http://island.web44.net/bbc.php Hello Everyone, I am on windows server and In my ini file server time zone declared as below

Any help would be appreciated. Edited May 21 by Ponel Basically I have recently been playing around with parsing a csv file. What I am looking to do at this point is simply take the date/timestamp (part of the csv file), which is in the following format:DD/MM HH:MM:SS.100th/s For the sake of argument, lets say I have this in an array string called $csv[0] and the file has several lines that span the course of a couple hours. I wouldn't mind having to use explode() to breakup/remove the date or 100th/s IF that would make things a lot simpler. So where would I start in trying to achieve this?. The result I am looking for will simply return "X Seconds". Storing this in a string variable would be a bonus, as I plan to use this to divide a separate piece of information. Any examples or ideas would be great. Thank you. ps: Here is an example time from the csv file itself: Code: [Select] 11/19 22:23:18.143 I am trying to simulate an ad expiration and carry out an action if the ad is expired. And I cannot get the if/else to work properly... I've tried many variations and I cannot see what I am doing wrong here. Any tips please 3 hours and counting of no solution! $ad_start = time()-14 . "<br />"; // 14 days from today in the past (negative) echo $ad_start; $current_time = time() . "<br />"; // current epoch time echo $current_time; $days_past = $ad_start - $current_time; // days past echo "<br />$days_past days have past since the ad started!<br />"; if($days_past <= 14) { echo "<br />Ad is less than 14 days. Not expired."; } else { echo "<br />Ad is over 14 days. Expired."; }
What are the differences and implications of UTC time and Zulu time?

This topic has been moved to Application Design. http://www.phpfreaks.com/forums/index.php?topic=316461.0 PHP 5.2.6 We rent PHP server space on a server in California. Several of my pages generated by PHP show the current date and time, so when the page is printed, the user knows when the data was printed. Our users could be anywhere in the US, I am in Michigan. How do I convert the server time (PDT) into local time, regardless of where the user is? Thanks. OK So I've got a datepicker that sends a date in d/m/y format. My DB stores the data in Unix Timestamp Which I can convert the date to with strtotime however this does the exact date & time. All I want is the actual day. I've spent hours trying to convert this with just the day with mixed results... Thanks. I am having a problem with PHP displaying the correct date and time. It updates as it should, but is fast by 4min and is always displaying a date in 2004. I ran a basic php script to make sure the application im using itself is not wrong. go to lunenburgledger.com/time.php Anybody had any ideas on where to check? The system time on the Windows Server 2003 is correct. The only thing I can think of is that it was converted to a virtual machine on vmware esxi, but the system time stayed right. Any ideas? Thanks! I am making a time clock, and I was wondering what is the best way to calculate the number of hours an employee worked? I have a table called "statuses" it holds names of punch types: - id = the auto_inc - status = "in/out/break/lunch" text statuses - paid = whether or not the punch is paid or not (true/false) I have another table called "logging" This table holds the information about the punch type: - id = the auto_inc - owner = the member id - ip = members ip - inout = the punch type from the statuses table - location = the city/state of where the punch took place - date = the time the member punched Maybe I am over thinking this, but what is the best way to calculate the hours a person has worked? Right now I am getting all the punches for for a particular member between a date range. then loop through the data to display it and passing it to a method in a class called Calc. I want to then add the times from punch in to punch out, then the next punch in to punch out. Any suggestions? Let's say I am buying a share for $10. If I sell the share on the same day BEFORE 3:30PM, it will be sold for $10, but if I keep the share past 3:30PM, I want the code to automatically add $1 (Taxes and such) once in the the price of the share in database, after that no matter how many days pass by, the price will remain the same.
I've thought about CRON jobs, but I have no idea how to make/use them or set them up.
Any direction or help is appreciated.
