GMT and time localization

[eluser]jiggs[/eluser]
Hi!

i have set my time_reference from the config file to be 'gmt', when i run the application and echo the gmt time its not showing the right answer.

Code:

echo date("m d Y h:i a", now());

I tried verifying this by going to some websites that generate the gmt time like http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/

the time on that site is using gmt and my CI is configured already to use 'gmt' yet both times shows a big difference!!


How is this?
