Using Codeigniter date helper to get timezone location <p>I'm using the Codeigniter date helper for timezone functions. I want to display a user's timezone location based on their timezone reference that I'm saving in the database. </p> <p><strong>Example:</strong></p> <p>Take a timezone reference <code>UP1</code> and return the corresponding location <code>(UTC + 1:00) Berlin, Brussels, Copenhagen, Madrid, Paris, Rome</code>. Date helper does not have a function for that.</p> <p>The function could be executed like this.. </p> <pre><code>echo timezone_location('UP1'); </code></pre> <p>which will echo</p> <pre><code>(UTC + 1:00) Berlin, Brussels, Copenhagen, Madrid, Paris, Rome </code></pre> <p>Codeigniter's timezone data exists in the folder <code>system/langauge/englishdate_lang.php</code> but I'm not sure how to access that to build the function. What do you think?</p>
