using an offset

I need the following format for dat and time:

 

date("Y-m-d H:i:s");

 

Now, I know the time offset and want to adjust the above.  Let's say the GMT time offset is 1.  How do I adjust it using the code above?

 

I tried as an example

date("Y-m-d H:i:s",3600);

but that adjusted the time by 8 hours!

You can just use date_default_timezone_set to set a timezone and everything will be adjusted for you. If you want to do it manually your way you'll have to take the current time and add one hour. What you supplied date with was 1 hour past January 1st, 1970.

 

date("Y-m-d H:i:s", time() + 3600);
