its cf for sure. it's a bug, that's for sure.
basically, if you werent in DST right now, all would work fine, there would be no 1 hour difference. www.navtrak.net/cfmxBug.cfm clearly illustrates this known-and-soon-to-be-fixed-in-the-next-release bug :) I found it going from now() to seconds since 1/1/1970 (epoch time) and then on the way back to a normal date, I was always getting a problem when using dateAdd() cfmx doesn't handle it right, and gives me a time back that is off by 1 hour. check out that link above, and you will see what I mean. anyway, my sources tell me that the bug is/will be fixed very soon!!!! I see red skys all the way to heaven ;) tony weeg uncertified advanced cold fusion developer tony at navtrak dot net www.navtrak.net office 410.548.2337 fax 410.860.2337 -----Original Message----- From: Roger B. [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, July 16, 2003 10:37 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: CF, Dates, and WDDX Maybe I'm overlooking something obvious, but CF's internal date handling seems a bit odd to me. Anyone else noticed anything along these lines? Basically, while playing around with manually constructed WDDX packets, I noticed that the UTC offset returned by GetTimeZoneInfo() reflects the Daylight Savings status of the server, but the WDDX serialization process doesn't. I went into this in more detail in my blog: http://journurl.com/mxblogspace/users/admin/?mode=article&entry=388 Don't get me wrong... it works once you understand it. But man, I spent some serious head-scratching time while trying to sort out what CFMX was doing. And since the same thing seems to happen in CF5, I can't even blame it on MX. -- Roger Benningfield http://admin.support.journurl.com/ JournURL: MXBlogspace free blog hosting for CF/Flash developers http://journurl.com/mxblogspace/ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?forumid=4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?method=subscribe&forumid=4 FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq Signup for the Fusion Authority news alert and keep up with the latest news in ColdFusion and related topics. http://www.fusionauthority.com/signup.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
