Time & Timezones

[Bioshox]

I know myself it can be difficult if your a newbie getting time to work correctly in PHP, and it can be even more difficult setting the timezone, so here is how to do it!

<?php
putenv("TZ=Europe/London");
echo "<h3>The time is now: " . date(" H:i")." GMT+</h3>"; 
?>

This will display ##:## (# = Time) in 24 hour format.

Here is the PHP Manual if you wish to format the time differently: PHP: date - Manual
