Time Different Between My Apache Server And My Local Clock
I actually have two questions:
1. I try to get current time, but the time I got is 1 hour different from my
local time. I assume it is caused by Time Zone. So is there any easy way to
fix this? I assume that I can first get the Time Zone of the server by using
the T option in date, and then using my local Time Zone to calculate the
difference. But I am wondering if there is some buil-in function to do it.
2. I found out this also today while workng on the same project. My apache
clock is 10 mins slower than my local clock. Any suggection to calibrate the
apache server clock (I don't own the server)?

Local Apache Web Server
At the moment I am using "easyphp" on my computer to test my php code. However, I would like to get a little more advanced and replicate an apache server on my home computer. Such that I can build a website using .htaccess on my home computer. I can build it at home, then upload it all nice and finished to an apache server. Does anyone know where I can get an apache server for my home computer? A kind of local host for apache? Also, I would like an IMAP email client on my server and to have some PHP code that is able to "read"/parse my incoming emails. Open them up - "read" them by looking for keywords - then delete them etc. Code:

Local Apache Web Server Revisited
I would like to replicate an apache server on my home computer. Conclusions of a previous thread on this topic: 1) Use the same operating system for your local apache server as your host uses. Any comments on just how important this is would be very welcome because i am thinking of cutting a corner and running my local apache server on windows XP. My prospective host uses Linux. 2) There are some nice "neat, easy, tidy" installs of apache (with PHP and MySQL) available. easyphp AppServ XAMPP Any comments on which one is best would be highly appreciated. As would further suggestions. 3) Things that I want to do which are a bit special: ) Use the PHP IMAP functions. These are a PHP extension. http://uk2.php.net/imap So, I will have to add this extension. How easy is this with these local apache servers? ) Does anyone know an IMAP email client that I can put on my local host apache server? courier-imap or CyrusIMAPD are apparantly possibilities. Can anyone point me to any reseources that would guide me through setting up these clients so that they are integrated with the apache web server - so that PHP code on the apache server could have access to emails in the IMAP email inbox. PHP code on the server can send emails from the IMAP email inbox.

Apache Local Test Server On XP Pro
I'm hoping someone can help me with the following. My son is learning PHP and wants to install an apache test server on our XP pro home computer so he can test his code before uploading it to his hosting company. I don't have a problem with this in principle but I do have the following concerns: 1) We connect to the internet via AOL and my son's account is a "young person access" account. Will this be compromised by apache? 2) Will the installation of this apache server allow my son to breach Windows security at all (he is a restricted user at present)? 3) Any other possible security issues?

Server Time To Local Time
I live in the UK, my hostings in USA, the server time is 6hrs behind my local time. I know that I could set up my forms so that when the dates entered into the database it is entered with +6 hours, but I just wondered if there's a simpler way? - it's just because I have a lot of forms that would need editing. Any sort of magic '+6' switch I could use so the database itself could take care of it upon insertion?

Auto Delete The Old Records But What If Server Clock Was Set Up Wrong In Maintenance?
I want auto delete any events that the event date is at least 1 day older than current date. No problem for the php programming. get the current data (server clock), check the events date and delete the old records. My problem is that for some very rare cases. Say if for extrem cases I have 1000 new events saved in database. But somehow, I or the the hosting company do the server maintenance, and reset the time clock of the server, in case in the maintenace, the server time clock was set up wrong say 2005, was set up as 2006.

Adjusting Time Displays For User's Local Time
I have a news/comment site where stories and comments are accompanied by the date they were posted. Currently I'm doing that in the GMT format, simply because it's easiest. What I'd like to do, however, is have the page display posts and comments with "your time," i.e., the local time of the user (example of what I'm talking about here). I know how to get local time variables from a user with javascript, but I'm not sure how to pass that information to PHP, especially since I'd like to do this on the front page, which means no passing javascript information via query strings.

Php MySQL Works On Remote Server, Only Partially On Local Server
code to populate form select fields with data from a MySQL database, so a user can use those to sort/filter and view the 3,000 records. No inserts -- just selects; very simple. I originally set this up using URL-based query strings at http://stjuliana.org/school/ar/BUindex.php but since that only allowed sorting and not filtering, hence all 3k records load, I made a form verson at http://stjuliana.org/school/ar/index.php . Everything works just fine, however, there's still a lot of tweaking I want to do, such as splitting the form input and output into two pages (_blank), having a printable version, etc. To that end I just set up the latest builds of Apache, php and MySQL on my local Windows XP box, lest I blow my beer budget for the month on bandwidth overage. <g> I have a very simple page I used to test my localhost setup and everything's fine. I can connect to MySQL, create, insert and select from DBs, so I know my config is fine. All my other .php pages on this site work fine locally as well. The two abovementioned pages, however, are giving me fits when run locally... For the URL-query-string version, it loads up with the default view (=name_ns), which grabs all records and sorts by name and point asc. No matter which of the other sort 'views' I might choose, it still loads up all the records in that default sort. The server's holding on to something and I don't know how to clear it. The remote version correctly sorts based on the query string chosen. The form version is worse. It connects to the DB and populates the select boxes with the field data -- that part's fine. But no matter which submit button is selected, no data is retrieved. I get no error, but no data either. The form's action is set to $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] and I've tried both GET and POST -- no change. Since the exact same pages work on the remote server I know it has to be something on the local setup. But where do I look if there's no obvious error? This is probably something incredibly basic but I'm bleary-eyed from reading tutorials and forums all over the Internet and can't come up with anything.

Can't Read Remote Web Page From Local Apache/PHP
I'm trying to read the contents of any Web page on another host. I'm finding that... echo file_get_contents( 'http://www.php.net' ); .... works fine if I upload the PHP script to my Web host, and run it there. But if I run it on my PC, which is running Apache 1.3.33 (Win32) and PHP 5.0.5, then it always times out, and gives me the error message...

Converting UTC To Local Time
My PHP connects with a postgresql database and fetches the last login information of type "timestamp with time zone". The database returns this value: 2007-08-06 19:05:14.551719-06, but the actual time I have right now is 9:05:14 PM. I assume the time given by the database is in UTC. Now, how do I convert this to respect the local time of the user seeing this? For example, I am located in eastern time zone and I should be seeing 9:07:14 PM, but someone in central time zone should be seeing 8:05:14 PM. Is there a PHP code that can convert this time into the local time of the current user viewing the time depending on his geographical location?

Record Website Visits According To Local Time (U.S. Central)
I've got a newb question about Daylight Savings Time (DST). First of all here is some server info: Apache 1.3.28 PHP 4.3.6 MySQL 3.23.49 Time is set to GMT My goal is to be able to accurately record website visits according to my local time (U.S. Central) every day of the year, no matter if I am in DST or not. I need a full datetime set of information (hour, min, second, etc). I have devised this line of code... $date=date("Y:m:dH:i:s",time-18000); ....but it does not help me when DST changes for me, as GMT does not observe DST. Next I tried this: echo("server time is: " . date("H:i:s") . "<br> "); putenv("TZ=US/Central"); echo("new server time is: " . date("H:i:s") . "<br> "); And got these results: server time is: 17:46:44 new server time is: 17:46:44 Apparently, the server does not allow me to change my timezone to Central time (because the resulting times are the same). The application I am developing relies heavily on *accurate* time information.
