New Comment:
I must not be doing something right. I'm trying to do the
date.timezone method but for some reason it is not working for me. I'm
doing:
date.timezone = "US/Mountain"
Is there a specific area that it needs to go under php.ini? Or can it
just go anywhere in the ini file? I tried it without quotes to no
avail. Any help would be great thanks. I'm really trying to avoid
having to use the date_default_timezone_set() function.

Well, I guess using date.timezone INI setting is even easier. But yes,
you can use date_default_timezone_set()/_get() either.

Oops! Sorry meant to say MDT and I should have expected MDT but I
didn't put that down, nor did I put a 1 expected for DST in expected
result. Yeah using date_default_timezone_set() worked. Is there a way
to change this permanently or do I have to do this for every script
that uses the date function? Thanks.

>The timezone is: MST and I am in DST territory.
Which means it's actually MDT, not MST.
What if you set the correct timezone with date_default_timezone_set() ?

Description:
------------
The time returned from the date() function is incorrect. The time is
an hour behind what it actually should be. This occured after the
clocks were set forward an hour. The timezone is: MST and I am in DST
territory. The code should explain my problem better. My server is
set to use DST and now since our clocks have been set forward (as
mentioned before) I've been getting that hour time difference. My work
around for now is to set the server's clock an hour ahead which outputs
the expected result, however this is not what I want to do. Is there
maybe a work around for this. I searched the bugs but didn't find
anything that lead to the exact problem I had, but if there is a
duplicate I apologize and if you can point me to it that would be
great. Thanks.
Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
echo date("Y-m-d H:i:s T I");
?>
Expected result:
----------------
2006-04-15 17:19:55 MST 0
Actual result:
--------------
2006-04-15 16:19:55 MST 0
