I think it's important to mention with the DateTime class that if you're trying to create a system that should store UNIX timestamps in UTC/GMT, and then convert them to a desired custom time-zone when they need to be displayed, using the following code is a good idea: <?php date_default_timezone_set('UTC'); ?> Even if you use something like: <?php $date->setTimezone( new DateTimeZone('UTC') ); ?> ... before you store the value, it doesn't seem to work because PHP is already trying to convert it to the default timezone. ---- Server IP: 69.147.83.197 Probable Submitter: 90.202.70.222 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/book.datetime.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/98532 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/98532/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/98532/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/98532/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/98532/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/98532/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/98532/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/98532 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/98532 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
