note 123401 added to function.date

One important thing you should remember is that the timestamp value returned by time() is time-zone agnostic and gets the number of seconds since 1 January 1970 at 00:00:00 UTC. This means that at a particular point in time, this function will return the same value in the US, Europe, India, Japan, ... date() will format a time-zone agnostic timestamp according to the default timezone set with date_default_timezone_set(...). Local time. If you want to output as UTC time use: <?php function dateUTC($format, $timestamp = null) { if ($timestamp === null) $timestamp = time(); $tz = date_default_timezone_get(); date_default_timezone_set('UTC'); $result = date($format, $timestamp); date_default_timezone_set($tz); return $result; } /> ---- Server IP: 208.43.231.9 Probable Submitter: 84.53.107.126 ---- Manual Page -- http://php.net/manual/en/function.date.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/123401 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/123401/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/123401/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/123401/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/123401/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/123401/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/123401/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/123401 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/123401 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
