Everithing works fine but My server date it's set with +5 hours (time difference), because I use a server that is 5 hours difference from the site, and I need to set +5 hours in the above script. How can I do that???

 

Please help. Thank you!

This code:

$thetimex = date("F d, Y H:i:s", time() + (TIME_OFFSET * 3600));

 

Where is 'TIME_OFFSET' defined? If it isn't, then you can switch it to '5' (5*3600 = +5hrs)

[robert.access]

thank you very much for the answer! I will try'it and let you know if working.

 

"Where is 'TIME_OFFSET' defined?" - don't know????

 

With this script I have a countdown on page and if it finish will display CLOSED....

 

I will try now your code. thx again

[robert.access]

it's not working 

 

how exacly to modify?

 

$thetimex = date("F d, Y H:i:s", time() + (TIME_OFFSET * 3600));
