Date function in PHP not working??

[bdd]

hiya ppl i have added the date function into my php page and it doesnt seem to be working correctly... i have done it before with no problems but on this page i have just created it started out working and now after deuploading the files it is displaying yesterday as todays date??? why???

i use this

<?
$today = date("l, d F Y");
?>

and then add the echo $today in my code... and like i said it is displaying a date but it is yesterdays???

the obvious thing is that the server is most likely on a different time zone as you so for the server that is still the date.

Alternatively check that the time and date on the server itself is correct.

can you give us an example of the output of the code and then the current time where you are.

i will be able to help then

One way to fix this is to add/subtract the difference in seconds from the system time:

3600 = 1 hour
86400 = 1 day
<?php
echo date("l, d F Y",time()-3600);
?>
