Subject: [PHP] time in annother zone


 Greetings,
 
 I've been to the online manual relating to both date() and time(), and
 i've read all the user-added notes, and i'm actually MORE confused now
 than I was before I started!!
 
 
 My ISP is based in Ontario, Canada.  Myself, and 90% of my users are
 based in Australia (Sydney/Melbourne time).
 
 
 I'm trying to show what time a post was added to a message board.  It's
 easy enough using date(), but it shows the server's local time (of
 course), not the current time in Australia.
 
 
 Now, I could easily find out how many seconds behind the ISP is, and
 minus it from the unix timestamp, but I'm thinking there has to be an
 easier way :)
 
 eg:
 
 ?
 
 $secondsDifference = a really big number;
 
 date(your format string,time() - $secondsDifference); 
 
 ?
 
 it could be setlocale(), or something else, i'm just not sure what to
 make of it all.
 
 
 
 Many thanks in advance,
 
 Justin French

Subject: [PHP] Rounding a number up


 Is there a way to round a number to the next whole number?
  
 Example: 
  
 Before: 1.86758
  
 After:  2
  
 Thank you,

[PHP] php help probably basic (used stripslashes but probably not the right way to do it)

[Lance Rochelle]

I am having the following problem.
I have a database that is setup as follows

CREATE TABLE test (
  id tinyint(4) NOT NULL auto_increment,
  text text NOT NULL ,
  PRIMARY KEY  (id)
) TYPE=MyISAM;

I have a page after a form that confirms all data to be entered the html is
as follows

text=\test \'ve\
id=1
form action=./commitcard.php 
input type=hidden name=text value=\test I\'ve\
input type=hidden name=id value=1
input type=submit name=submit value=Commit to database!
/form

however in the next page I am doing a print of the insert statement for
testing and all I get is the following
insert into test (id,text) values ('1','\')

I have tried the following
$test = stripslashes($test);

 but it just gets worse any ideas would be helpful

I am using php 4.0.6, apache 1.3.20, mysql 3.23.42, and Linux kernel 2.4.3
