Hi! Try setting the timezone to one of the cities inside it from this list: http://www.php.net/manual/en/timezones.america.php DST will be taken into account automatically. Hope that helps. Jan

Jan: That's the problem, it doesn't work. I have mine set for Detroit and it's an hour off Detroit time. It kind of bugged me that when I upgraded to php5 that I had to define the default time zone in my code, but then to find out that it's off by an hour really ticks me off. What's the point of defining a time zone if php5 isn't going to get it right? All this time I thought that I was doing something wrong, but it appears that this is a problem for others as well -- are we doing something wrong?
