Simple day request

Hello,

I'm trying to do something simple, but am having a struggle.

My server is in the US and has a -5 hour offset.

I need to get the day in the UK. Can someone put me in the right direction?

I've been googling for ages but can't seem to crack it.

Thanks!

Hi,

I assume you want to put the day/date in your website.

If your site runs on PHP do this:

<?php echo date('jS F Y H:i:s', strtotime("+5 hours")); ?>

PHP will get the server time and add 5 hours to it.

JavaScript:

<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
var currentTime = new Date()
var month = currentTime.getMonth() + 1
var day = currentTime.getDate()
var year = currentTime.getFullYear()
document.write(month + "/" + day + "/" + year)
//-->
</script>

JavaScript will only show the visitors local day and time.

Hope that helps!
