Re: [PHP] PHP5.3.5: error message for date()
PS. What is "date.sunrise_zenith"? I am surprised that PHP contains a function to return the time of sunrise for a given location, but I thought that latitude, longitude, date and time zone would be all you had to know. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

I have put date_default_timezone_set() at the start of my program, which clears up all my bugs, but leaves the bug in PHP.ini. This doesn't worry me. And now I know where my son found the "10 types of people" T-shirt. Unfortunately I seldom wear T-shirts, and my friends wouldn't get the joke anyway.

This warning was introduced in PHP5.1, and you either need to set the date.timezone INI setting, either in your php.ini or by using ini_set(), or by passing a valid timezone to date_default_timezone_set() before calling any other date-related functions. --- Simon Welsh Admin of http://simon.geek.nz/ Who said Microsoft never created a bug-free program?

[PHP] PHP5.3.5: error message for date()
After a long battle to get my system back on air after a hard disk crash, I got PHP 5.3.5 running under Apache 2.2.3. I now get a diagnostic every time I call date(), complaining about a missing parameter. The manual states that the second parameter is optional, and even phpinfo doesn't know about this new requirement, as it contains the same diagnostic: "Warning: phpinfo(): It is not safe to rely on the system's timezone settings. You are *required* to use the date.timezone setting or the date_default_timezone_set() function. In case you used any of those methods and you are still getting this warning, you most likely misspelled the timezone identifier. We selected 'Australia/Melbourne' for '11.0/DST' instead in D:\Websites\index.php on line 1 Warning: phpinfo(): It is not safe to rely on the system's timezone settings. You are *required* to use the date.timezone setting or the date_default_timezone_set() function. In case you used any of those methods and you are still getting this warning, you most likely misspelled the timezone identifier. We selected 'Australia/Melbourne' for '11.0/DST' instead in D:\Websites\index.php on line 1 ". Is this a bug, or a new requirement we will have to get used to?
