Alright, quick question.

A server is running in Eastern Time. PHP program needs to make date calculations using Central time.

At the moment, I am putting this line at the very top of my script:

putenv('TZ=US/Central'); 

Is that the best way to go about that or is there some PHP trick I’m not aware of?

Cheers.

    You can use date_default_timezone_set and all the date/time functions in the script will use it.
