How do I use PHP to get the current year?

Question

I want to put a copyright notice in the footer of a web site, but I think it\'s incredibly tacky for the year to be outdated.

How would I make the year update automat

Answer 1

This one gives you the local time:

$year = date('Y'); // 2008

And this one UTC:

$year = gmdate('Y'); // 2008
