I'm using PHP 5.1.2 on IIS. Here in New Zealand, our daylight savings started a week earlier
than usual and went into affect this past weekend. The time on my machine is correct. The timezone
settings on my machine are correct. But if I display the time on a PHP page, it is 1 hour behind.
Setting the timezone with date_default_timezone_set() doesn't make any difference. If I
display the time on an ASP page, it shows the correct time so it can't be an IIS problem I
don't think.
Why would PHP be showing the time as if it hadn't changed? Where is it getting the time from?
Here is the code I'm using:
date_default_timezone_set('Pacific/Auckland');
echo "time is " . date("h:i:s");
