    Hi,
    PHP scripting language have an built in function to change between the timezones , you will need the PEAR package . In the following example show you how to convert from GMT system format to IST Format .

    <?php
    // include class
    include ("Date.php");

    // initialize object
    $d = new Date("2008-10-03 16:23:48");


    // set server time zone
    $d->setTZByID("GMT");

    // print server time
    echo "Local time is " . $d->format("%A, %d %B %Y %T") . "\n";

    // convert to IST
    $d->convertTZByID("PST");

    // output converted date/time
    echo "Destination time is " . $d->format("%A, %d %B %Y %T");

    ?>
