My local server is in america.</p> <p>I am trying to convert the local time to time zone specific - Europe/London.</p> <p>i am preferably wanting to insert the timezone specific time upon it being inserted into the table, however i have been having a lot of problems with this and everything i do doesn't work.</p> <p>so now im simply trying to convert the time from local to time zone specific when i echo it out. and this gives this error:</p> <pre><code>Catchable fatal error: Object of class DateTime could not be converted to string in /home/content/31/9118831/html/ptbadmin/stats.php on line 79 </code></pre> <p>can someone please show me where im gonig wrong. my table looks like this:</p> <pre><code> session_id | user_ip | session_start| 1 1.1.1.1 2013-04-08 00:15:24 2 1.1.1.1 2013-04-08 00:15:24 </code></pre> <p>here is my code:</p> <pre><code> $sql = "INSERT INTO ptb_sessions (session_id, user_ip, session_start, session_end) VALUES (NULL, '" . $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'] .

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
