DarkWater Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 You can either change the PHP timezone to reflect your own, or get the date in Javascript and pass it into PHP. The former is probably going to be more elegant.

trq Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 Actually, that should probably be date_default_timezone_set. Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/142057-solved-is-date-in-server-or-in-client/#findComment-743933 Share on other sites More sharing options...

rubing Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 you don't need the ini file, just call the function at the top of your script.
