http://talks.php.net/show/time-phptek6/30 works pretty well... (but talks.php.net doesn't have it so the example doesn't work there)
Not sure, but I think that still has the same problem with not knowing the real timezone/daylight saving of the client?
Actually, guessing it from the abbreviation with gmt offset is pretty accurate. Of course, it's not 100% correct but atleast I couldn't find any where it didn't work.
It's daylight saving that is the 'killer' :( But until I switch from ADOdb Date to yours ...... -- Lester Caine - G8HFL ----------------------------- L.S.Caine Electronic Services - http://home.lsces.co.uk Model Engineers Digital Workshop - http://home.lsces.co.uk/ModelEngineersDigitalWorkshop/ Treasurer - Firebird Foundation Inc. - http://www.firebirdsql.org/index.php
