Using DateTime in PHP, generating bad unix epoch time from $foo->format('U')
- by Jazzepi
I can't seem to get the correct Unix epoch time out of this PHP DateTime object.
$startingDateTime = "2005/08/15 1:52:01 am";
$foo = new DateTime($startingDateTime, new DateTimeZone("America/New_York"));
echo $foo-format('U');
which gives
1124085121
Which is Mon, 15 Aug 2005 00:52:01 GMT -500 (according to http://www.epochconverter.com/) but that's incorrect by an hour.
It SHOULD be 1124088721 and spit back at me as Mon, 15 Aug 2005 01:52:01 GMT -500
Any help would be appreciated.
