page modified time offset

[Colleen]

Hello,

I am using this code snippet that tells when my php page was last modified. The problem is my server is 5 hours ahead of me and I want it to show my time. I have tried to get it to work and can't figure it out. This is the code I am using:

<?
//where page3.php is the current file
$last_modified = filemtime("page3.php");
//print it all out
print("<b>Last Modified:</b> ");
print(date("M j, Y. g:i a", $last_modified));
?>

Does anyone know how to modify it to make the time 5 hours less?

Thanks for your time.

Subtract 5 hours worth of seconds from $last_modified before applying date()

There may be problems with daylight savings time etc, but I dont have any experience with that where I come from.

Hello, thanks for your reply, however I am totally new to php and don't exactly know where to write that in. Would you mind showing me what to do? Thank you.

Ok, I got it going. Thanks again for your help.

Here is the code if anyone wants to use it.

<?
//where page3.php is the current file
putenv('TZ=US/Eastern'); 
mktime(0,0,0,1,1,1970);
$last_modified = (-18000);
$last_modified = filemtime("page3.php");
//print it all out
print("<b>Last Modified:</b> ");
print(date("M j, Y g:i a", $last_modified));
?>
