WEIRD!!! PHP Clock 12 hours ahead?!

[chrisvmarle]

Hi All,

This is about the weirdest problem I've ever had...

It seems that the time PHP returns (using something simple like: <?=date("Y-m-d h:i:s")?>) is 12 hours ahead:confused:

Has anybody got any idea how to fix this?!? :confused:

Thanks in advance
Mzzl, Chris

hehe, it's getting the time of the server. which is probably 12 hours difference of what you are.

The server ís my computer...

Sure your clock is set right? :confused:

[chrisvmarle]

yep

try using gmdate(), it should give you the GMT time, and then you'll know if its just the way its reading date() is wrong, or it is indeed your server. Check your BIOS clock.

I think I've found the problem:
"Y-m-d h:i:s" doesn't return AM/PM ("A" is needed for that "Y-m-d h:i:s A") so the time was right, but I expected a 24 hour format...

My bad

Changed:
<?=date("Y-m-d h:i:s")?>
to:
<?=date("Y-m-d H:i:s")?>
