I've been using putenv() to change the timezone in a script (my server
is in CST, me in EST). My reading of the docs suggests that this changes
the time zone environment variable for _the server_ for the duration of
the script. Is this polite? If another account accesses the server at
exactly the same time my script is running, is that "customer" stuck in
EST? Because there are a number of ways of dealing with timezone
differences, this is just the simplest.
Thanks.
