Description

Create a php script that will display current date and time using the php date function. For output see the Input/Output section. Provide three different versions of the script each written in a different way as presented in the implementation section.

Implementation

Create three php scripts date1.php, date2.php, and date3.php. Each script will display current date and time using the php date function. However, write the each php script in a different way as shown below:

PHP script form 1: Dont output HTML tags

//Dont output html tags (they are implied)

?>

PHP script form 2: Output HTML tags within PHP tag

//Output html tags from within the php tag

print ;

print ;

?>

PHP script form 3: Output HTML tags outside the PHP tag

//Output html tags from outside the php tag

?>

Sample Code

Script date1.php will consist of only a few print statements for displaying the date shown below.

print "Today's Date: ";

print date("m/d/y h:i:s e");

print "";

print "";

?>

Script date3.php will be an html page with a php tags sprinkled in it as shown below.

Configuring Time Zone

If time zone is not correct, rectify it by changing it in the configuration file as below:

Go to the file php.ini (file type is: Configuration settings

(In the file explorer, the ini file extension may not show. You will recognize the file from it file type)

(Make a backup copy of the file and call it phpOrig.ini)

Open php.ini using MSWord or Word Pad

Search for timezone in the file

Change the time zone line in the file as follows:

date.timezone = US/Pacific

Save the php.ini as a plain text (text only) file

Re-run the program
