What variable holds the current localtimezone for vB?

[stardotstar]

Thank you for that - I will add it to my searching on this problem I have:

It seems for the purposes that I am troubleshooting I need to know how the timestamp for posts and pms and other items displayed are rendered back at UTC while the main board time is correctly displayed at the bottom of the board...

eg
All times are GMT +10. The time now is 21:11.

but at post at that time on the same page shows as
11:11 AM UTC

This is after a callout via a product to openx which has a bug that resets the php variable to UTC when called in a particular mode (local mode) but with javascript (soooo slooooow) works fine.

I am asking this question in various ways because I want to fix the phpadsnew integration (currently not being supported and at vb3.5) and all I need is the workaround to save the local timezone that is used to build the display date and then reset it after the call out but I am still learning (as fast as I can)

Thank you for the reply and to anyone else who can help me hack through to the next level of this project and my own skills as a php hack
