<? /* The Purpose of this function is to display the actual time in your time zone if your web host has a different time from you. In the function, the variable $timediff is the time difference in seconds between your actual location and the location of your server or webhost. If you are ahead of your server type in a positive integer such as 7200. If you behind your server please enter a negative integer such as -7200. In the first example you are 2 hours ahead of your server. In the second example your are 2 hours behind your server. Our Goal is to capture the actual time at your location and then return a time like Saturday, August 15, 2004 08:55:05 PM EST. */ function actualtime () { $timediff = -7200 ; // The time difference between your server and your time. $timestamp = date('U'); // The timestamp at your server. $timestamp = $timestamp + $timediff; // The calculated timestamp at your actual location. $weekday = date('l', $timestamp); // Day of the week like Saturday. $month = date('F', $timestamp); // Month of the year Like August. $day = date('d', $timestamp); // Day of the month like 14 $year = date('Y', $timestamp); // A full numeric representation of a year, 4 digits like 2004 $hour = date('h', $timestamp); // The time in hours. $minute = date('i', $timestamp); // The time in minutes. $seconds = date('s', $timestamp); // The time in seconds. $am_pm = date('A', $timestamp); // The Uppercase Ante meridiem and Post meridiem AM or PM. $suffix = 'Eastern Time' ; // The suffix that you would like to attach at the end of your date and time. $actualtimeis = "{$weekday}, {$month} {$day}, {$year} {$hour}:{$minute}:{$seconds} {$am_pm} {$suffix}" ; return $actualtimeis ; // function ends here. } echo actualtime (); // Prints something like Saturday, August 14, 2004 12:59:47 PM Eastern Time. ?> ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.date.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+44744 Delete -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+44744&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+44744&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
