#40202 [Bgs->Opn]: Arizona timezone detected as America/Denver

ID: 40202 User updated by: ajb at blyler dot cc Reported By: ajb at blyler dot cc -Status: Bogus +Status: Open Bug Type: *General Issues Operating System: Linux PHP Version: 5.2.0 New Comment: Setting the time zone in the php.ini file works just fine. But why doesn't php detect that /etc/localtime is set to Arizona's time zone? I would think that php would detect Arizona's time zone as America/Phoenix and not America/Denver. Since these time zones are different.

Which causes the date/time functions in php to incorrectly return date/time data since Arizona does not observe daylight savings. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=40202&edit=1
