 |
|
Hi,
I'm a bit lost in the whole converting timezone issues in Date.
What I'm trying to do is:
[list=]
Get the current date.
Convert to UTC
[/list]
But the current date is based in the server timezone. So I set the timezone manually with setTZById() and then the toUTC.
But I get wrong numbers everywhere and it has something to do with daylight saving time.
| Code: |
$oNow = new Date();
$tz = exec('date "+%Z"');
$oNow->setTZById($tz);
$oNow->toUTC();
|
My $tz is 'CEST' which means CET in daylight saving time.
Is it converted automatically?
Or do I have to subtract the offset myself?
And is the inDaylightTime() function working?
Thnx! |
