Note, I don't believe there's anything wrong with the stamp itself. The point is, the stamp is displaying as two different dates using date() on two different servers, and I believe this is not what date() is supposed to do. Shouldn't the stamp for 12-09-2002 22:13:09 be the same on every server? My rationale for this is that no matter where you are in the world, it is always a certain number of seconds since 01-01-1970 00:00:00. Perhaps strtotime() is NOT running off GMT, and perhaps date() is... there has to be SOME confusion there -- either on my side, or in my choice of functions, or SOMETHING :) Justin French -------------------- http://Indent.com.au Web Development & Graphic Design --------------------
