How to convert Eastern Time Zone to CENTRAL TIME ZONE

I have a time that is being in Eastern Time Zone, but I want to adjust it to CENTRAL TIME ZONE. Both time zones are in USA. I never do it before? I don't know how to convert it. Please help me?

Solution

  • This is one possible method:

    $dt = new DateTime('2011-02-22 16:15:20', new DateTimeZone('America/New_York'));
echo $dt->format('r') . PHP_EOL;

$dt->setTimezone(new DateTimeZone('America/Chicago'));
echo $dt->format('r') . PHP_EOL;

    You can get a list of available time zones with:

    print_r(DateTimeZone::listIdentifiers());
