Ok fine, 4 is correct, so since it is returning to me just the number 4 I'm
assuming that I should append a + sign to it? If I was in a timezone that
was positive CFML would return the number and the - sign correct?

All I want to do is have a time formatted like

2003-08-03T11:15:35+10:00

How do I get the +, -?

thats because of daylight savings time :)

we are truly -4 here. (east coast, im in maryland)
but with our concoction of DST, we make ourselves -5

Spring forward
Fall back

get it :)  yeah its a bit confusing, but once you
spend 6 months coding around it for a multi-time zone
web based app !!! you learn it really quick.

anyway, it works.

later.

My server says GMT-5 but cf returns just the number 4. Is this a bug or
am I
missing something. Since your server says GMT+7 cf returns to you "-7".
If
mine working correctly should do the opposite cf on my end should return
"+4"? Let alone the fact it returns 4 instead of 5.

its an "offset" from UTC (GMT). i'm in bangkok, GMT+7, so my cf servers
here
return an offset of -7. if want to see how this works geographically
(its a
bit slow):  http://www.tei.or.th/utmZones/
