//Get current date time in PHP
// Simply:
$date = date('Y-m-d H:i:s');
// Or:
$date = date('Y/m/d H:i:s');
// This would return the date in the following formats respectively:
$date = '2012-03-06 17:33:07';
// Or
$date = '2012/03/06 17:33:07';
/**

* If you want the date in a different time zone,
* say if you come from Nairobi, Kenya like I do, you can set
* the time zone to Nairobi as shown below.
