I want to display 7 different time for 7 different countries, but as you can see on my code I have just a simple knowledge of programming. My question is, is there a better way of displaying the time for this 7 countries(Sydney,Brisbane,Perth,Bangkok,London,New York, and L.A.) and can I use more than one different date_default_timezone_set in one php file? because on what I tried it only follows one timezone. Appreciate all the help, thanks.

<?php
function a(){
if(date_default_timezone_set('Australia/Sydney'))
{
date("format");
echo date( 'h:ia');
}
}
function b(){
if(date_default_timezone_get('Australia/Brisbane'))
{
$date = date(“format”, $timestamp);
echo date( 'h:ia');
}
}
//else
//elseif(date_default_timezone_get('Australia/Perth'))
// {
// $date = date(“format”, $timestamp);
// }
//elseif(date_default_timezone_get('Asia/Bangkok'))
// {
// $date = date(“format”, $timestamp);
// }
//elseif(date_default_timezone_get('Europe/London'))
// {
// $date = date(“format”, $timestamp);
// }
//elseif(date_default_timezone_get('America/New_York'))
// {
// $date = date(“format”, $timestamp);
// }
//elseif(date_default_timezone_get('America/Los_Angeles'))
// {
// $date = date(“format”, $timestamp);
// }
?>

<tr>
<td>Sydney and Melbourne</td><td>Brisbane</td><td>Manila and Perth</td> <td>Bangkok</td><td>London</td><td>New York</td><td>Los Angeles and San Francisco</td>
</tr>
</>
<td><?php return a(); ?></td><td><?php return b(); ?></td>
<td><?php echo date( 'h:ia'); ?></td><td><?php echo date( 'h:ia'); ?></td>
<td><?php echo date( 'h:ia'); ?></td><td><?php echo date( 'h:ia'); ?></td>
<td><?php echo date( 'h:ia'); ?></td>
</tr>

The clock works fine, but how do I design it so that the numbers move without refreshing the page?
If you use the DateTime class, you don't need to change your default timezone every time:
date_default_timezone_set('YourOwn/LocalTimezone'); // fill in the blank
$timezones = array(
'Sydney' => 'Australia/Sydney',
'Melbourne' => 'Australia/Melbourne',
...
);
foreach ($timezones as $name => $timezone) {
$localTime = new DateTime('now', new DateTimeZone($timezone));
echo "$name: ", $localTime->format('h:ia');
}
