PHP Time zone help

Exhale · 08-31-2008, 10:42 PM

So i am running xZero classifieds, and i am trying to set it up so that the time is for Mountain Standard. I want to know if this is possible by editing anything here? Basically, its the time function that everything else goes to, i do believe
????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/programming/509550-php-time-zone-help.html

Code:

function QuickDate($timestamp, $showtime=TRUE, $gmt=FALSE, $format="")
{
	if(!$format)
	{
		if($showtime) $format = $GLOBALS['langx']['datetimeformat'];
		else $format =  $GLOBALS['langx']['dateformat'];
	}

	return xDate($timestamp, $gmt, $format, $GLOBALS['langx']['months'], $GLOBALS['langx']['weekdays']);
}

Thanks in advance

can you put in the function for xDate as well?

You can use date_default_timezone_set() to set the default timezone used by all date/time functions in a script (PHP >= 5.1.0).

eg:
date_default_timezone_set("America/Phoenix");

Not sure which one it would be, but here is a few of the ones i found

Code:

	if ($_GET['date']) $xdate = $_GET['date'];
	else $xdate = date("Y-m-d");

Code:

	preg_match("/([0-9]+)-([0-9]+)-([0-9]+)/", $xdate, $dp);
	$xdatestamp = mktime(0, 0, 0, $dp[2], $dp[3], $dp[1]);
	$xdate_y = $dp[1];
	$xdate_m = $dp[2];
	$xdate_d = $dp[3];

either of those?

? anybody?

nasaboy007 · 09-03-2008, 06:15 PM

neither of those two, it'll be something like:
????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/showthread.php?t=509550

PHP Code:

  function xDate($arg1 ... etc) {

//function

}

also, did you try date_default_timezone_set("timezone"); like sutuicom suggested?

Where would i put that?

nasaboy007 · 09-04-2008, 03:02 PM

just stick it in the file all the way at the top where you got the code from your FIRST post from. see if it does anything.

It isn't about PHP for setting a fixed timezone. [There might be one but I prefer other way round]

You can set the timezone from .htaccess file

Code:

SetEnv TZ America/New York
