cron time

[sirpablo]

A nice feature to have would be the current server time on the cron page(s). Otherwise you are left to guess (unless you already know it). Thanks.

Believe they are all Texas CST. Look at your computer clock and convert to that. That is what I do.

All times are GMT-6

That is cool, but how is everyone else supposed to know that? Wouldn't 1 line of php code take care of this?

GMT-6 is the same as US Central Standard Time (CST) Texas.
For some of us its easier to think that way.

That would require updating it on over 1000+ servers.

How about check it yourself. Create a file called like: servertime.php

PHP Code:

<?php

$time = date(g:i a e);  

echo "Hostgator Time!  $time";

?>

Server time is somewhere on cPanel, at least on some skins.

And if you want your local time, something like a zillion accounts.

You can actually change your Time zone in your shell session, by using "export TZ=TIMEZONE_HERE".

I know some cron daemon support the TZ environment variable, you might want to try adding TZ=TIMEZONE at the top of your cron file as a test... I've never tried it before though.
