The last clause is missing from the German documentation. > GMT+x => GMT-x > please fix this.. Fix what? Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2020-09-09 14:44:18] test at web dot de Description: ------------ --- From manual page: https://php.net/timezones.others --- Sorry for interrupting.. I just want to point out to you, that what you have on the timezones-page is a GIANT mess from my point of view! You make all those standard ('other') timezones available, and I thank you for doing so. BUT you have a GIANT warning at top of the page, basically saying "don't touch!" - without giving a proper reason for not touching it (backwards compatibility.. but I WANT to use THOSE ones and not those summer-/wintertime dependent ones you provide for example via https://www.php.net/manual/de/timezones.php I don't see any reason, why I should not use them, and why I should switch to summer-/wintertime-based ones. I hope you just -remove the warnings- and decide to KEEP the 'other' timezones, because people might acutally HAVE TO use them. SECOND: concerning the second warning on the page GMT+x => GMT-x please fix this.. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=80082&edit=1
