By: Olav Alexander Mjelde Subject: RE: Well Done Well.. You can say this was a great article, but I had the same thing in my head! My problem is, as Peter Matuchniak stated above: Some countries / states have daylight savings time, others do not. The ones that do have it, may vary on the date it changes. Of course, one could find a register of all the timezones and then use many hours programming a system for changing timezones. The obvious and easy part of this, is to gather the timezone of the user. I thought of this idea: 1: The user inputs his local time 2: The php script checks the difference between the users local time and the servers local time 3: The php script stores the differende in a timezone_offset field but.. there is the daylights-saving problem. I dont know how many different daylight saving dates you have, maybe I will try to look into it. I certannly know I will not program towards this, untill I know how to solve the dayligt saving. Maybe I will do a dirty trick with javascript, but I'd rather not have javascript at all, as I'm not very keen on clientside scripting. |
