Also, when using date_default_timezone_set(), you can't depend on date_default_timezone_get() to get the .ini setting. It doesn't work. Reproduce code: --------------- date_default_timezone_set(date_default_timezone_get()); $datetime = new DateTime(); $datetime->format('G'), 0, 0); // top of hour echo $datetime->format(DATE_RFC3339); Expected result: ---------------- 2008-06-16T18:00:00+01:00 Actual result: -------------- 2008-06-16T18:00:00+00:00 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=45285&edit=1
