$o_End = new DateTime('23:59:59.999', $o_CalifTZ);

And UTC is not the same as GMT. Ish.
GMT is only valid for 6 months of the year. Then, due to DST, it becomes BST.
UTC is just UTC.
Also, your DST may not be on the same day as GMT-BST.
Using the timezone America/Los_Angeles holds all the various shifts in
DST and offset that have been recorded, so you can use current local
time (shifted with DST just like you would read off your watch of PC)
with that timezone and PHP can work out what the timestamp is.
It sounds a little messy, but the TLA timezones aren't always sufficient.
Derick did a really good talk about this a couple of years ago for
php|Architect. I'm sure there's a video somewhere of it.
All makes perfect sense in the end.

Assuming your timezone is set to California time (

It probably is if this is where your site is hosted. But all you need to
do is change hosting providers to one somewhere else, or for someone who's
not careful to mess something up on the system, and the script will break
all because you assumed it would always be right. So better to set it and
know it's right.

AHA!
I had tried checking validity by setting a BOGUS time zone (which
showed that it was taking effect), but I had not tried checking by
setting an alternate VALID time zone.
Guess what? It works. If I set it to America/Denver, I get correct output.
Thus, something is corrupt in the timezone DB itself (which I believe
is internal to PHP from what I understand from the threads I've read).
America/Chicago is completely broken but America/Denver works just fine.
Incidentally, I have noticed that CentOS is completely broken in their
tz distro. Every time it updates, it includes a US/Central file that
is completely invalid. This has persisted for months--at the OS level
I've fixed it by copying in a valid US/Central file from another box.
But doing that does not fix PHP (tried that just now)--which again I'd
expect it not to anyway, since I believe PHP (as of PHP5) has an
internal timezone DB. But I tried it just in case.
So now I suppose the thread becomes: how do I get a valid US/Central
(America/Chicago) timezone in PHP5?
Thanks much,

That's OK, I knew this was coming. It's been a real struggle to be deploying something so old, yet CentOS insists on nothing but 5.1 in the packages unless you resort to some volatile repositories, which kind of defeats the purpose (in my case, that is). I used to always go with source directly but was really hoping to go the somewhat-brainless auto-update route, sticking to yum packages and all that. At risk of sending this thread too far down an OS-specific path, can anybody in the CentOS+PHP world comment on yum packages, 5.1, and this actual issue? (In the very beginning I scoured the Net, thinking surely 5.1.6 can't be the standard on CentOS, but kept running into the either go from source yourself or use volatile repositories claims, which aren't good in an enterprise case, though I realize using source isn't bad from that standpoint).

Greetings,
I've looked through a number of different archived threads (some
rather heated) and samples as well, but clearly I'm just missing
something.
PHP 5.1.6
CentOS release 5.5 (Final)
My server is in Central Time (US). We do observe DST. I noticed
functions like strftime() display UTC time. So I undertook fixing
this.
I read several threads about setting date.timezone in php.ini, and
arguments for/against different timezone methods. But in my case I see
no reason why setting the timezone in php.ini would hurt us--we can
live with that. And yet:
[...@ez2 html 13:47:20]$ date
Mon Nov 1 13:50:05 CDT 2010
Good.
[...@ez2 html 13:50:05]$ grep -i timezone /etc/php.ini
date.timezone = America/Chicago
Good--and yes, Apache was restarted. So far, we're Central, life is good.
Let's hit PHP now:
?
if (date_default_timezone_get()) {
echo 'date_default_timezone_get: ' . date_default_timezone_get() . 'br
/';
}
if (ini_get('date.timezone')) {
echo 'date.timezone: ' . ini_get('date.timezone');
}
echo Br;
$localtime = localtime();
$localtime_assoc = localtime(time(), true);
print_r($localtime);
print_r($localtime_assoc);
echo Br . strftime(%D %T %z %Z) . br;
?
Which produces:
date_default_timezone_get: America/Chicago
date.timezone: America/Chicago
Array ( [0] = 14 [1] = 51 [2] = 18 [3] = 1 [4] = 10 [5] = 110
[6] = 1 [7] = 304 [8] = 0 ) Array ( [tm_sec] = 14 [tm_min] = 51
[tm_hour] = 18 [tm_mday] = 1 [tm_mon] = 10 [tm_year] = 110
[tm_wday] = 1 [tm_yday] = 304 [tm_isdst] = 0 )
11/01/10 18:51:14 + UTC
Timezone is America/Chicago, yet date functions completely ignore this
and continue to display UTC.
Please help me understand where I'm blind here.
a few thoughts,
1. set error_reporting to E_ALL to see if the engine is trying to tell you
something you may be overlooking
2. for grins, maybe see if the TZ environment variable is set on your system
var_dump(getenv('TZ'));
3. another test would be to set date.timezone to something else and see if

lastly you might see if the calling date_default_timezone_set() does the

Hey everybody,
I've got a strange problem. Using PHP5.3 on my MacBook.
There is a script, which handles input from user, in this case a date
and time.
So I get for example 10:30 and 06.10.2009. Standard german time
format. Now I try to get the correct timestamp:
$time = strtotime(06.10.2009 10:30);
var_dump($time);
var_dump(strftime(%d.%m.%Y %H:%m,$time));
But the result is as
int 1254817800
string '06.10.2009 10:10' (length=16)
The minutes are always 10, no matter what time I get.
Anyone a clue?
Thanks, Mattes
P.S.: default timezone is set to
date_default_timezone_set('Europe/Berlin');

var_dump($time);

But the result is as

Hi Mert,
But we're not talking about date() here, we're talking strftime().
According to the manual %i doesn't do anything in strftime(). Closest match
is %I which is 12-hour format for hours.

You don't mention what DB you're using, but mySQL can be quite a pain when dealing with multiple time zones. Not impossible, but a hassle none the less.

How many rows are you affecting with this query at one time?
I hate to say it, but this to me is just begging for a unix timestamps, then
you can simply deal with the seconds remaining on this counter.

$end_time is not a great name for it: it's the time (number of

Please stop top-posting. I'm fully aware of what it's for == I am aware of its purpose. My point was that time() gives you seconds since the UNIX epoch, whereas microtime(true) will give you more accurate results if you are looking to benchmark a script. If your script takes a few minutes and you don't really care about measuring those milli/micro seconds, then time() should suit your needs just fine. However, if your script can perform an iteration in less than one second, you have already eliminated the usefulness of time() for benchmarks. -- // Todd -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Don't forget--microtime() without the boolean true as an argument
will split the result into two parts. Using true as the argument
(minus quotes, of course) gives you a floating-point representation of
seconds/milliseconds/etc.

You should convert your times to minutes so you can use minute
intervals... the following was written directly into the email and so it
is UNTESTED:
?php
$bits = explode( ':', $currentTime );
$currentTime = $bits[0] * 60 + $bits[1];
$bits = explode( ':', $endTime );
$endTime = $bits[0] * 60 + $bits[1];
$interval = 15; // minutes
for( $i = $currentTime; $i = $endTime; $i += $interval )
{
$time = floor( $i / 60 ).':'.($i % 60).':00';
}
?
Adapt to fit your needs.
Note: I used a time interval like you state in your above description (X
mins). But the code you submitted used appeared to use number of time
slices instead.

What type of database are you using? You can probably do this right in
the database. If MySQL you can do the following:
select DATE_FORMAT(time_column, '%h:%i:%s %p') from your_table;
Tests:
mysql select DATE_FORMAT('2007-07-16 14:19:00', '%h:%i:%s %p');
+---+
| DATE_FORMAT('2007-07-16 14:19:00', '%h:%i:%s %p') |
+---+
| 02:19:00 PM |
+---+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)
mysql select DATE_FORMAT('2007-07-16 04:19:00', '%h:%i:%s %p');
+---+
| DATE_FORMAT('2007-07-16 04:19:00', '%h:%i:%s %p') |

The remaining problem is that until we store in UTC we will never know which 01:30:00 a timestamp refers to, EDT or EST (Eastern Daylight, or Eastern Standard.) In UTC this doesn't happen. Of course there is no problem for spring, only in the fall time change.

Hm. I hope this means you're storing it as a TimeStamp format, or

I have to search for users that are registered this week, this
month and this year. How can i do that? I mean how can i found the
beginning of this week? Or the beginning of this month?
If you are storing it as a DateTime field, MySQL has loads of date
related functions for doing this, and it's more efficient to do it
using MySQL's functions that the equivalent in PHP. Take a look here:
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/date-and-time-types.html and http://
dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/date-and-time-functions.html
You can do the calculations in PHP. For example, to find the first
day of this month as a timestamp:
$first = strtotime(date('Y-m-01'));
strtotime has some wonderful functionality - you can ask for dates
like 'next week' 'last year' 'yesterday -1 week'.
To format a timestamp into a MySQL-compatible DateTime string, use:
$datetime = date('Y-m-d h:i:s', $timestamp);

Re: [PHP] Time consumed in microseconds
Darn missed it. Looking into the docs I am using code
somthing like this:
$start = microtime();
$result = mysql_query ( $query, $mysql );
$end = microtime();
$diff = microtime_diff ($start, $end);
function microtimdiff() is given by:
function microtime_diff($a, $b)
{
list($a_dec, $a_sec) = explode( , $a);
list($b_dec, $b_sec) = explode( , $b);
return ((float)$b_sec - (float)$a_sec +
(float)$b_dec - (float)$a_dec);
}
The result from one operation is like:
$start = 0.26562800 1093931165
$end = 0.26813400 1093931165
$diff = 0.002506
So to get the difference in ms I have to multilply
$diff by 1000.
Am I correct?

ms? I used microtime() and the samples given in
php.net but none of them correctly returns the
difference only in ms?
Read the manual page again. Use the example to get
the microtime as a
float at the start and then after your job. Subtract
to get the
difference. If you're using PHP5, just use
microtime(TRUE); to get the
float value.

Take a look at sleep() http://www.php.net/sleep It delays execution by a user specified number of seconds.

I have done all those checks. Thanks for trying though.

That's the local and UTC-time. Write a testscript to show time and timezone in PHP without calculations. Check /etc/timezone. It can be that you must create it. Sri, no more ideas on the fly. It's a little bit complex to manage all features. Hope some checks are good for your search...

RE: [PHP] Time
Hi, I found the problem. If you change the time zone on your Linux server running Apache and PHP, you need to Stop and then Start Apache else the PHP (or Apache) will still pick up the old time zone.

Is there anyway to set a time out on this command:

--- Erin [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: How do i convert a timestamp in to a normal readable time date ie 2003155023 into 11th November 2003 @ 15:50:23 That's not a timestamp, first of all. It looks to me like you just need to use substr() to parse out the elements however you want. You can see if strtotime() can do anything with it, but I doubt it. If you want to convert it to a real timestamp, look at the mktime() function. Once you have a timestamp, it's very easy to work with, and you can use date() to format it however you want. Hope that helps.
