Complex time problem.. Gurus can help

[karthikeyan_coder]

here is the two functions for showing time in the format "3:57 pm"

[code]function convert_timestamp($timestamp, $timezoneOffset=0) {
$replacements = array(  '-' => '',
' ' => '',
':' => '');
$timestamp = strtr($timestamp, $replacements);

return $timestamp?mktime(
substr($timestamp,8,2),
substr($timestamp,10,2) - $timezoneOffset + $GLOBALS['fc_config']['timeOffset'],
substr($timestamp,12,2),
substr($timestamp,4,2),
substr($timestamp,6,2),
substr($timestamp,0,4)
):0;
}

function format_Timestamp($timestamp, $tzoffset) {
return gmdate($GLOBALS['fc_config']['timeStampFormat'], convert_timestamp($timestamp, $tzoffset));
}[/code]

i need these functions to show US time... how can we change these functions to show US time?

Thank you.

Why can't you use the [url=http://www.php.net/date]date()[/url] function to format the time string?

[code]

<?php

echo date("h:i a"); // format 3:57 pm

echo date("h:i a",strtotime('now + 2 hours')); // + 2 hours = 5:57 pm

echo date("h:i a",strtotime('now - 1 hours')); // - 1 hour = 2:57 pm

?>
