It is not a PHP problem, i just checked it on a server running
PHP4.4.4 in GMT timezone, output:
2007-03-13 4:55 PM GMT
2007-03-11 12:00 AM GMT

All working fine.

Well that's strange since PHP4 and 5 both use the same ini file on my
dev box. And so they both get the following ini setting:

   date.timezone="Canada/Eastern"

And in php 4.4.4 I get the bad output, but in php 5.2.0 I get the good
output.

Cheers,
Rob.




Why would one give me EST and the other EDT?

+60*60 worked after strtotime for a temp fix, but I'm probably going to do the update to php5 finally....hopefully it doesn't break anything I've created... like i need more work to do.. lol

thanks for all the help :)

Jake
