so you do something like this no?:
$stamp = mktime();
so if you want to use DateTime why not do this?:
$stamp = new DateTime;
alternatively if you are stuck with the original integer timestamp,
then you can get round the issue like so:
$stamp = mktime();
$date = getdate($stamp);
$obj = new DateTime;
$obj->setDate($date['year'], $date['mon'], $date['mday']);
$obj->setTime($date['hours'], $date['minutes'], $date['seconds']);
$obj->setTimezone('er?');
or something like that.
seems rather stupid that DateTime doesn't accept a timestamp, but there is
probably a good reason ... as Richard Lynch pointed out date/time stuff seems
easy but is actually very very hard (and something computers will probably
never get 'right')
anyway, everything you need is right here if care to read it:
