vijdev Posted July 24, 2007 Share Posted July 24, 2007 i am setting server time for tz - GMT how will the respective user be able to have all transactions in his own TZ, without having to use javascipt that takes time from users computer? one solution is i think to use geo ip... is there any other way?

trq Posted July 24, 2007 Share Posted July 24, 2007 is there any other way? If your users are logged in you could ask them for there tz during the signup process. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redarrow Posted July 24, 2007 Share Posted July 24, 2007 All the information needed for the timezone would be set in the <option value "prpoertys ok ect ect". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suttercain Posted July 24, 2007 Share Posted July 24, 2007 Here is a pretty good article if you wanted to use JavaScript and get the timezone from the user's computer automatically.... I wouldn't go this route, but it's a good read: http://www.willmaster.com/possibilities/archives/wmp19990831001.shtml Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
