Re: [PHP] MySQL GMT -- Local time
My logging application is feeding a MySQL database with data records that are time stamped with GMT time. I would like to query the database for records matching local time(eg. all records created on oct 17,2002 local time). I would prefer if the records could be formated in local time when returned from MySQL. What is the best way to do this. I don't know if there is an automatic way to do it, but if you know you are 5 hours ahead of GMT for example, and you want all records for Oct 17, 2002 GMT+5, then you could do this: SELECT * FROM your_table WHERE TO_DAYS(datetime_column + INTERVAL 5 HOUR) = TO_DAYS(20021017) You can use DATE_FORMAT() in your query to reformat the MySQL timestamp, or use UNIX_TIMESTAMP() to retrieve a unix timestamp instead and format it in PHP. With the above query, the 5 and actual date 20021017 can be PHP variables, to make it more flexible. ---John Holmes... -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Knowing what dates are included with standard or daylight savings time offsets is a problem. It gets more complicated when I want to return a distinct date record set from the timestamp column.
