trying to set the default time zone using this

the current time in Sydney is 8:55

but the timestamp is showing as 2011-11-07 13:55:20 just a few hours out.

date_default_timezone_set('Australia/Sydney');

if (date_default_timezone_get()) {
    echo 'date_default_timezone_set: ' . date_default_timezone_get() . '<br />';
}

if (ini_get('date.timezone')) {
    echo 'date.timezone: ' . ini_get('date.timezone');
}

Thanks that quite handy will hold to that one.

 

but what i am trying to is to insert current time stamp then work out how many days since the user last logged in that part is working i just need the full timestamp which iam currently using the now() function to insert the time stamp as such.

 

mysql_query("UPDATE mmembers set time='now() where email='$myusername'") or die (mysql_error());
