You can't get the client's locale or timezone from the server side, and you can only make a guess at it from the client side, using JavaScript.
(You can get more locale information if the browser supports Java, but that's a bit of a pain and everyone hates applets.)
To handle timezones in a web application, store all your times as UTC timestamps, and convert them to text for on-page formatting using a user-chosen timezone. You can use methods like in this question to guess at the timezone, but since this is not reliable you should also allow the user to explicitly choose timezone.
You can use:
date_default_timezone_set('Europe/London');
date_default_timezone_get; // Europe/London
or
if (ini_get('date.timezone')) {
echo 'date.timezone: ' . ini_get('date.timezone');
}
