Do you mean local time as in the clients computer time? If so, as far as
I know you can't get that with PHP. What you would have to do is grab it
with JavaScript or something, and then pass that across to your server
script.

Re: how to get the local time

You should be able to get the local time for Sweden by adding

date_default_timezone_set('Stockholm/Sweden');
echo date('l F jS, o');?>

However, I dont know about getting the local time of someone visiting from a
different time zone.

RE: how to get the local time

You either have to use JS on the client side.

Or you store the user's timezone as a preference in their profile and
compute using that by setting a TZ variable.

Normally you would store all data in mySQL in UTC and then convert on the
fly as mentioned above for each user.
