Unix date

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi gang:

Using:

$unix_in = 1255845600;

echo(date("M d, Y h:i:s a",$unix_in));

On one sever, produces: Oct 18, 2009 02:00:00 am

But on another sever, produces: Oct 18, 2009 12:00:00 am

This difference appears to be a combination of "time-zone" and "daylight-savings" considerations. In other words, the function date() looks at the server's time (whatever that is set for, right or wrong) and uses that for the calculation.

So, what's the best method in keeping things consistent across servers? Is there one?

Cheers,

tedd
