If there was not a BC problem then we should simply forget the ENV TZ variable. It's not reliable, not cross-platform and maybe even not TS (not sure about all SAPI). About TZ setting precedence, I see 2 needs: 1) Global or per host setting (ie vhost) 2) User defined per app 1) has precendence over TZ env and 2) over 1). I do not remember if ini_set is disabled in safe_mode or if only some settings are disabled. If ini_set itself is disabled, we need this function. About the names, I would like to go with date_default_timezone_set and _get. Upcoming (not 5.1) features will have TZ per date resource. --Pierre -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
