Time Zones And Php 4

[Bobby]

Hello everyone,

Is there any way of altering the PHP or MYSQL time zone to reflect GMT +10?

 

I notice that my server is running PHP version 4.4.4 which means I am unable to use date_default_timezone_set which requires version 5.

I am attempting to timestamp an sql entry with my local time rather than that of the server.

 

Any suggestions?

Nevermind just found my own answer.

 

For anyone else having this problem the putenv function will assist as a workaround.

Example, putenv ('TZ=Australia/Melbourne');

Not sure if this function is completely compatible with the list of supported time zones listed on the php website, http://au3.php.net/manual/en/timezones.php
