I searched the board but couldn't find anything that was useful... I want to have my users be able to pick their timezone (in essence) and then have all times properly formatted. I was thinking of a dropdown to pick their CURRENT TIME (based on incrementing/decrementing hours from the server's time) So if the server time was midnight and they picked their time was 3am... I would just add 3 hours to all my timestamps for output. This doesn't handle daylight savings time though, does it? Is this a good/the best way to do it? How else could/should I do it?
You got php5 ? http://uk2.php.net/manual/en/function.date-timezone-set.php http://uk2.php.net/manual/en/function.date-default-timezone-set.php That would be the best option, to set a cookie for each users to describe thier timezone then call one of those functions ( depends on what sorta date / time functions you're using to begin with ) to adjust the timestamps sitewide for them
