i have problem with PHP strtotime converting to different timezone. My code is simple:
<?php
date_default_timezone_set("Europe/Bratislava");
echo date("H:i",strtotime("20:00 America/New_York"));
?>
This code is returning: 02:00. But it should return 14:00.
Can you help me please to fix this?

No, it's right. You're converting from 8pm in New York (currently UTC-4 due to DST) into the Europe/Bratislava time zone (currently UTC+2 due to DST).
So:
New York: 8pm
UTC: Midnight
Bratislava: 2am
If you're trying to convert from a Europe/Bratislava time into a New York time, then you need to switch your time zone IDs.
