Despite the comments above, it seems to me that both jdtounix() and time() are independent of the
current time zone (at least on PHP 5.2.6-2ubuntu4.3). The time zone only comes into play when you
try to *output* times. Hence the distinction between strftime() and gmstrftime(), for example.
Try this:
<?php
print "<pre>";
date_default_timezone_set("America/New_York");
print( "default timezone = " . date_default_timezone_get() . "\n" );
print( "jdtounix = " . jdtounix($a) . "\n" );
print( "time() = " . time() . "\n" );
print( strftime( "%d/%m/%Y\n", jdtounix($a) ) );
print( gmstrftime( "%d/%m/%Y\n", jdtounix($a) ) );
date_default_timezone_set("Etc/UTC");
print( "default timezone = " . date_default_timezone_get() . "\n" );
print( "jdtounix = " . jdtounix($a) . "\n" );
print( "time() = " . time() . "\n" );
print( strftime( "%d/%m/%Y\n", jdtounix($a) ) );
print( gmstrftime( "%d/%m/%Y\n", jdtounix($a) ) );
print "</pre>";
?>
Result:
default timezone = America/New_York
jdtounix = 1252972800
time() = 1253032058
14/09/2009
15/09/2009
default timezone = Etc/UTC
jdtounix = 1252972800
time() = 1253032058
