Note Submitter: kenaniah at gmail dot com ---- This function behaves like date, but allows you to output the date in a given time zone locale. <?php function date_at_timezone($format, $locale, $timestamp=null){ if(is_null($timestamp)) $timestamp = time(); //Prepare to calculate the time zone offset $current = time(); //Switch to new time zone locale $tz = date_default_timezone_get(); date_default_timezone_set($locale); //Calculate the offset $offset = time() - $current; //Get the date in the new locale $output = date($format, $timestamp - $offset); //Restore the previous time zone date_default_timezone_set($tz); return $output; } //Examples $t = time(); print date("g:i A T", $t); //4:16 PM PDT print date_at_timezone("g:i A T", "America/New_York", $t); //7:16 PM EDT print date_at_timezone("g:i A T", "Pacific/Samoa", $t); //12:16 PM SST print date("g:i A T", $t); //4:16 PM PDT ?>
