note 106459 added to function.date-default-timezone-set

An easy way to use the browser offset and set the offset without having to know the actual timezone name is as follows: So for example if I have a browser offset in minutes (retrieved via Javascript): $offset_hours = ($browser_offset / 60) * -1; date_default_timezone_set('Etc/GMT'.($offset_hours<=0 ? '+' : '').(-$offset_hours)); ---- Server IP: 69.147.83.197 Probable Submitter: 96.56.117.210 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.date-default-timezone-set.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/106459 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/106459/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/106459/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/106459/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/106459/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/106459/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/106459/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/106459 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/106459 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
