#23467 [Fbk->Opn]: Showing incorrect Time Zone

ID: 23467 User updated by: John at JGSystems dot net Reported By: John at JGSystems dot net -Status: Feedback +Status: Open Bug Type: Date/time related Operating System: Windows 2000 & XP PHP Version: 4.3.2-RC1 New Comment: It's a local machine. Win XP. Nothings changed from the items listed below in this thread or I would have mentioned it. I downloaded the link, installed it after erasing the last version you all had me try and the same result. I did tell you that it was supposed to be --> MDT <-- not --> BST <-- Thanks... Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-08-19 21:00:56] sniper@php.net You need to always tell what the time SHOULD be. Also, is this on local machine? Or some remote machine where you upload the script? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-08-19 20:03:54] John at JGSystems dot net Same thing as before. Shows: This page was last modified: Monday - May 19, 2003 at 4:22 PM BST. BST instead of MDT We are -0600 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-08-19 19:16:21] sniper@php.net Please try using this CVS snapshot: http://snaps.php.net/php4-STABLE-latest.tar.gz For Windows: http://snaps.php.net/win32/php4-win32-STABLE-latest.zip ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-05-06 13:03:50] John at JGSystems dot net Here ya go! Tue, 6 May 2003 11:59:58 -0600 1 And my XP shows: Current Time Zone: Mountain Daylight Time <shrug> <G> ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-05-06 12:28:02] michael dot mauch at gmx dot de This example shows exactly how braindead these abbreviations are: a) Nobody knows what they mean. b) According to <http://www.worldtimezone.com/wtz-names/wtz-bst.html>, "BST" means also "Brazil Standard Time" and "Bering Summer Time". c) Everybody invents their own zone names - e.g. <http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/vccore98/html/_crt__tzset.asp> features a "GST" for "German standard time", which definitely doesn't exist here in Germany. John, can you please post the result of: echo date("r"),"\n"; echo date("I"),"\n"; // uppercase "i" And can you please make sure that your Windows machine knows in which timezone it is? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
