eg: on my contact form http://www.bhatt.id.au/contactus.php the PHP code has daylight savings logic in it,
This is because I am in NSW (with daylight savings Nov-Mar), and my server is in Queensland (with no daylight savings Nov-Mar), and so I have to add a 1 hour offet to the server time between Nov-Mar to ensure it displays the correct time in Sydney

The time for Sydney is also one hour off, it says 07:40 PM when it should be 08:40PM
looks like you need to add some backend logic to adjust dates for daylight savings
PHP always uses server time AFAIK and there's no way to adjust for time zones since PHP cannot determine what time zone a client is in, at least in the research I did a couple of years ago.
Javascript can use the client computer's clock time, but PHP cannot as it's a server-side language.
