Do you want to post your code?

[jwk811]

the date function like this
[code]<?php echo date("g:i:s"); ?>[/code]
i need it to come up in my time zone
thanks~~

[code]<?php
$hour = date(g) - 2;

echo date($hour.":i:s"); ?>[/code]

Something like:

[code]$MyTime = date("g i", time() + 7200);[/code]

Of course, you'll have to change it depending on the date format used :)

@The Little Guy

g is not a constant, therefore [color=blue]date(g[/color]) will fail, provided PHP is set to strict warnings / errors.

Should be [color=blue]date('g')[/color]

Yeah, you'll have to change by seconds, not by just 2.

sorry I forgot the quotes, otherwise it will work.
