Help with clock and accurate time

[foto1]

Greetings,

I am a member of a not-for-profit photography association. We have contracted a company to build us a new website. We asked that they put clocks (w/temp too) on our website for 5 major cities worldwide, and they did.

The problem is the clocks are 5 minutes behind! They told me that nothing can be done. Can anyone please advise us? If we need to get clocks from a differnt source, purchase a service or program, that is not a problem. Posting the wrong time on our website is!

Thank you in advance, feel free to email direct.

They told me that nothing can be done.

Are they serious??? omg...what an ignorant host administrator this is! The only two reasons they can not update clock on the server are:
1) they are too lazy (advise: change the host)
2) they dont know how to do that (advise: change the host)

Try replace in includes/functions.php:

Code: [Select]

  return date($format, $timestamp + (3600 * $timezone_offset));
With:

Code: [Select]

  return date($format, $timestamp + (3600 * $timezone_offset) + 300);

function format_date($format, $timestamp) {
  global $user_info;
  $timezone_offset = (defined("TIME_OFFSET")) ? TIME_OFFSET : 0;
  return date($format, $timestamp + (3600 * $timezone_offset));
}

I replace for this...

function format_date($format, $timestamp) {
  global $user_info;
  $timezone_offset = (defined("TIME_OFFSET")) ? TIME_OFFSET : 0;
  return date($format, $timestamp + (3600 * $timezone_offset) + 300);
}

... and nothing happened
