title: php date function showing wrong time
body: <p>I've faced a really funny problem. my server timezone is set to <strong>America/New_York</strong> (as indicated in <code>phpinfo()</code> and return value of <code>date_default_timezone_get()</code>) and now it is 23:30 PM in New York but when use <code>echo date(h:i)</code> it shows me 7:30 AM , with 8 hours offset!  </p>
  
  <p>My server system time also shows 7:30 AM and default timezone is not set in php.ini  </p>
  
  <p>Thanks for your help </p>
