+Currently, the ADOdb date/time library has no built-in support for Daylight Savings Tme, but provides a simple hook that allows you to define your own daylights savings function. The function must be called //**adodb_daylight_sv()**//, and must be accessible in the current procedure.

+===== Usage =====

 <code php>
