note 104111 added to datetime.construct

A definite "gotcha" (while documented) that exists in the __construct is that it ignores your timezone if the $time is a timestamp. While this may not make sense, the object does provide you with methods to work around it. // New Timezone Object $timezone = new DateTimeZone('America/New_York'); // New DateTime Object $date = new DateTime('@1306123200', $timezone); // You would expect the date to be 2011-05-23 00:00:00 // But it actually outputs 2011-05-23 04:00:00 echo $date->format('Y-m-d H:i:s'); // You can still set the timezone though like so... $date->setTimezone($timezone); // This will now output 2011-05-23 00:00:00 echo $date->format('Y-m-d H:i:s'); ---- Server IP: 69.147.83.197 Probable Submitter: 174.55.38.37 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/datetime.construct.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/104111 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/104111/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/104111/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/104111/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/104111/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/104111/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/104111/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/104111 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/104111 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
