Weird PHP Time

[cancer10]

Hi,

I am using windows XP and running a local server on my PC.

I am using the following PHP code to generate the current System time:


<?php echo date("g:i a", time()) ;?>

To my surprise, I see the output as 2:36 pm where as my localtime is 8:08 PM

Why is there approx 6.3 hrs of difference b/w my system time and my local server time?


Any help will be appreciated

Thanx

Try this:


<?php echo date("g:i a"); ?>

I believe adding the time() in there changes it from localtime to unix timestamp.

even removing that didnt help :(

ok seems i have found a solution:


<?php putenv("TZ=Asia/Calcutta");echo date("d M, Y g:i a");?>
