Where is the Server located that the script is running on?  Looks like it's 4 hours ahead of you.  You'll have to adjust for time zone differences.

localhost

xampp

No, where the server is physically located as a different time zone than you.

 

Try this:

 

$hourplus = "4";
$adjusteddate = date("l, d F Y h:i a",time() + ($hourplus * 3600));
print ("$adjusteddate");

nope...i no upload to any server..

just try at my local apache server at my pc

how?

[zgkhoo]

the apache running at my pc...

so the date/time should base on my pc's date time rite?

How many hours are you from GMT?

Maybe there is a Offset setting in the PHP.INI file that you didn't set.

time(); would return the UNIX time stamp... but on Apache, which is a Windows server (I think) I don't think it'd work... Is your computer clock wrong?

Your PHP.ini file:

[Date]
; Defines the default timezone used by the date functions
date.timezone =

 

In this directive, you need to list a timezone identifier, of which the list can be found here: http://us.php.net/manual/en/timezones.php

 

Also go into Windows and check your timezone. Double click the time at the bottom right of your screen in the system tray, click the timezone tab and set it properly.
