We did this using JavaScript. Just create a Date object and call getTimezoneOffset on it. We actually do that twice, one for a summer date and one for a winter date. Then we look at both offsets and use that to guess a location (rather than just the current time offset). I can send the code if needed. The technique works pretty well, and gets the timezone pretty well. All the best Stuart
