by country with Example, to get the timezones in Portugal:
gives: Array ( [0] => Atlantic/Azores [1] => Atlantic/Madeira [2] => Europe/Lisbon ) You can then do:
As has been repeated over and over again in this thread, you can't get one single time zone per country. Countries have several timezones, and you'll notice that even this page doesn't even select one arbitrarily for some countries like the U.S.A. answered Aug 14, 2010 at 15:28

You could store the timezone by the name of a city instead, but I'd use an integer with the timezone offset in seconds. You can get a list of timezones by continent/city from this function: [www.php.net/manual/en/function.timezone-identifiers-list.php][1] You can get the respective offset from this function: [www.php.net/manual/en/datetimezone.getoffset.php][2] When you have a valid offset, you can use gmdate() instead of date() to get a date in your format without the timezone/dst adjustment. Just pass the time() + the ajustment you have stored: [www.php.net/manual/en/function.gmdate.php][3]
