New Comment:
Um, sorry if I'm cluttering the list... This bug is half a year old so
I'm wondering if/when it's going to get fixed.
Y'all probably know what's going on, but allow me to clarify what I've
learned about this bug, perhaps it will help someone.
date('T') doesn't work under Windows during Daylight times and there's
no notation of this in the manual. I'll put a user comment in there.
Here's a test script:
<?php
echo 'Local: dT='.date('T') . ' dO='.date('O') . '
sZ='.strftime('%Z');
echo "\n<br />";
putenv('TZ=EST5EDT');
echo 'EST5EDT: dT='.date('T') . ' dO='.date('O') . '
sZ='.strftime('%Z');
echo "\n<br />";
putenv('TZ=PST8PDT');
echo 'PST8PDT: dT='.date('T') . ' dO='.date('O') . '
sZ='.strftime('%Z');
echo "\n<br />";
putenv('TZ=GMT0BST');
echo 'GMT0BST: dT='.date('T') . ' dO='.date('O') . '
sZ='.strftime('%Z');
echo "\n<br />";
putenv('TZ=MST-3MDT');
echo 'MST-3MDT: dT='.date('T') . ' dO='.date('O') . '
sZ='.strftime('%Z');
echo "\n<br />";
putenv('TZ=GMT');
echo 'GMT: dT='.date('T') . ' dO='.date('O') . '
sZ='.strftime('%Z');
?>
OUTPUT DURING EASTERN DAYLIGHT TIME
-----------------------------------
Local: dT=BST dO=-0400 sZ=Eastern Daylight Time
EST5EDT: dT=BST dO=-0400 sZ=EDT
PST8PDT: dT=BST dO=-0700 sZ=PDT
GMT0BST: dT=BST dO=+0100 sZ=BST
MST-3MDT: dT=BST dO=+0400 sZ=MDT
GMT: dT=GMT dO=+0000 sZ=GMT
OUTPUT DURING EASTERN STANDARD TIME

EST5EDT: dT=EST dO=-0500 sZ=EST
PST8PDT: dT=PST dO=-0800 sZ=PST
GMT0BST: dT=GMT dO=+0000 sZ=GMT

It's a local machine. Win XP. Nothings changed from the items listed
below in this thread or I would have mentioned it.
I downloaded the link, installed it after erasing the last version you
all had me try and the same result. I did tell you that it was
supposed to be --> MDT <-- not --> BST <--
Thanks...
