GEOIP_TIME_ZONE_BY_COUNTRY_AND_REGION(3) 1 GEOIP_TIME_ZONE_BY_COUNTRY_AND_REGION(3)geoip_time_zone_by_country_and_region - Returns the time zone for some country and region code comboSYNOPSIS
string geoip_time_zone_by_country_and_region (string $country_code, [string $region_code])
DESCRIPTION
The geoip_time_zone_by_country_and_region(3) function will return the time zone corresponding to a country and region code combo.
In the United States, the region code corresponds to the two-letter abbreviation of each state. In Canada, the region code corresponds to
the two-letter province or territory code as attributed by Canada Post.
For the rest of the world, GeoIP uses FIPS 10-4 codes to represent regions. You can check http://www.maxmind.com/app/fips10_4 for a
detailed list of FIPS 10-4 codes.
This function is always available if using GeoIP Library version 1.4.1 or newer. The data is taken directly from the GeoIP Library and not
from any database.
PARAMETERS
o $country_code
- The two-letter country code (see geoip_country_code_by_name(3))
o $region_code
- The two-letter (or digit) region code (see geoip_region_by_name(3))
RETURN VALUES
Returns the time zone on success, or FALSE if the country and region code combo cannot be found.
