date_default_timezone_set()设置时区

You can have time zone set for India as 'Asia/Kolkata' this will add +5.30 to GMT time.
You will get proper time of your time zone.
Example:


<?php
$timezone = "Asia/Calcutta";
if(function_exists('date_default_timezone_set')) date_default_timezone_set($timezone);
echo date('d-m-Y H:i:s');
?>

You will get result as India time

*********************************************

Even though php supports 'Asia/Riyadh', MySQL doesn't!  I had to use '+3:00' instead, to over come that since it's pointless to set the time zone for the script and not the database activities.  To do it for both, do the following :

<?php 
$timezone = "Asia/Riyadh"; 
if(function_exists('date_default_timezone_set')) date_default_timezone_set($timezone); 

mysql_query("SET SESSION time_zone = '+3:00'"); 
?>
