General timezone list for MYSQL
Today I had to create short list of timezones for a project I was working on and basically created a list that I used within a MYSQL database, which I hope saves someone else the hassle. Once in database, it can be used in selectlists using PHP, etc.
INSERT INTO `tbl_timezone` (`int_timezone_id`, `var_description`, `int_shift`) VALUES
