time()

[Sheep]

Hello,

When I use my time() function, it returns the time of one hour ago... Can anyone tell how this can be solved? I use the Apache server....

Your servers clock is not set correctly, I'm not sure how you'd adjust this with Apache, but you can add an hour onto your time() like this...
[code]<?php
$plusonehour = time() + (60 * 60);
echo "Now: ".date("H:i:s")."<br/>";
echo "+1Hr: ".date("H:i:s",$plusonehour);
?>[/code]

Check your system time. The time function returns the current time of the server it is on. I am not farmiliar with apache, but does apache have it's own internal clock???

If you cannot find it you could use this to adjust it

[code]<?
// get current server time
$servtime = time();
// get required offset in seconds
$offset = 60*60;  //60*60 = 3600 seconds or 1 hour
// put them together
$currenttime = $servtime + $offset;
// Format it to your liking
$formatted_time = date("m/d/Y H:i:s", $currenttime);
// Echo it out
echo $formatted_time;
?>[/code]

Damn!! Apoc beat me to it :)
