<?php 
$now = time();
echo date("m/d/y h:i a", $now);
?>

I would definitely look up the time() function and date() function to get everything formatted the way you want it.
time "returns the current time measured in the number of seconds since the Unix Epoch" and is dependent on the servers date/time setting, usually for the timezone that the server is set up in.

date can take a 'format' to output the date/time in and a variable with the timestamp you want to output
