Irresistable Posted November 3, 2009 Share Posted November 3, 2009 The time of php.. is set 6 hours behind GMT time. How can I change this. So that when people subscribe to the news letter, it shows the GMT time, instead of GMT-6 Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Irresistable Posted November 3, 2009 Author Share Posted November 3, 2009 I don't know what Linux is... How would I find out if my phpMyAdmin is .. linux etc.. It's on a paid webhosting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonnoTheDev Posted November 3, 2009 Share Posted November 3, 2009 It's on a paid webhosting Then you will not have access to the server. You will have to set the timezone in the code. phpMyadmin is a database admin utility, nothing to do with the server. <?php date_default_timezone_set('Europe/London'); // should print current date / time print date('d-m-Y H:i:s'); ?> http://php.net/manual/en/function.date-default-timezone-set.php Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JonnoTheDev Posted November 3, 2009 Share Posted November 3, 2009 Where are you displaying the time? You are not making yourself very clear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irresistable Posted November 3, 2009 Author Share Posted November 3, 2009 I have a mySQL database.. which is used on phpMyAdmin on my cPanel. I have a newsletter. The user signs up to it.. and details get entered in the database. I want to display the time in there. I have got it to display the time, but not GMT london time.
