```

### Specification of time zone

[](#specification-of-time-zone)

Time zone is set by local `php.ini` settings. Therefore `$nameday->today()` will return result according to that. If you need to specify different time zone you can do so by adding optional parameter `$timeZone` to the constructor. `$timeZone` must be [PHP time zones](https://www.php.net/manual/en/timezones.php) string or integer [offset to GMT](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_UTC_time_offsets).

```
$nameday = new Nameday('Pacific/Honolulu');
echo $nameday->today(); # will return today name days according to Pacific/Honolulu time zone
```

```
$nameday = new Nameday('+13:30');
echo $nameday->tomorrow(); # will return today name days according to given UTC offset
```

### Certificate

[](#certificate)

Make sure you have proper certificates stored on your local machine as Name day API uses HTTPS only.

If you run into problems with server certificate try downloading the [The Mozilla CA certificate store](https://curl.haxx.se/docs/caextract.html), save it on your system and configure `php.ini`

```
[curl]
; A default value for the CURLOPT_CAINFO option. This is required to be an
; absolute path.
curl.cainfo = "C:\...\cacert.pem"
```
