Grrrr @ PHP/PEAR

Posted by Wilmer van der Gaast on Sat 2007-04-07

I really don't like PHP ... Or maybe s9y is buggy here. All of a sudden (or probably since I upgraded to the newest version of s9y?) the timezone applet was broken. I just noticed it, it was two hours ahead of the real time in two zones. grmbl I have no idea why. So now I'm not using the PHP-internal Date module but just let libc do the work instead of the PEAR Date module. Calling /bin/date from a webscript might be considered evil by purists, but at least it works.

Just in case someone came here somewhere in the 5-minute timeframe where the whole page was broken. ;-)
