I have a timestamp in MySQL table. I want to compare that to the
current time. I'll be using this code on different servers.

I can do this:

$mysql_datetime = '2011-08-19 14:00:35';

$mysql_datetime_formatted = preg_replace('/\D/','',$mysql_datetime);

$date_now = date("YmdHis");

$diff = $date_now - $mysql_datetime_formatted;

echo "$mysql_datetime_formatted - $date_now = $diff in seconds";

Can I count on (more or less) the MySQL time/time zone to be the same as
that PHP uses?

More reliable or easier way?
