Changing the TimeZone....

[Napster]

Is it possible to change the timezone on yourserver for your site? Like, currently, my server timezone is GMT -7 I believe, and I live in GMT -8 and I want it so I do not have to do math calculations to change the timestamp to get my time, every single time. Thanks in advance.

Umm... it's not hard... just use the [man]date[/man] function as I don't think you can change the server-time (since you'd have to have admin access to do that).....

function getmytime($zone)
{
	$zone = (($zone*(60*60))!=date('Z'))?(($zone*(60*60))-date('Z')):0;

return date('H:i:s', time()+$zone);
}

Then, whenever you need to use it, just call it. That's almost your only option I think...
