Hi,

I'm trying to get the date and time in php, for keeping logs, for security in my login pages etc.

I can get the date and time with no problems, but the timezone is all off and my server timezone is correct, i'm using Windows Server 2003 and php5 installed on IIS 6.

My time zone is actually GMT +02:00 but my php script shows EEST +0300
Why? and how do I correct this?

Thanks

$tz="Europe/Berlin";
//set you locale timezone see http://www.php.net/manual/timezones.php


//only needed if you use PHP 5.1.x or greater
if(0 < version_compare(PHP_VERSION, '5.1.0')){
date_default_timezone_set($tz);
}
