I believe you can use JS to pull the local computer's time and then use AJAX to send that information back to the server, however if this is for a security system or an application's vital information, a user can just change their local date/time to overcome the system.
If you tell us what the end use will be for the information we may be able to guide you with more useable information. William -- William E. Seiter Have you ever read a book that changed your life?

But, I do know my server's timezone, what I'd like to know is user/UA 's timezone, currently I'm using sql to do that... other than asking them, you really can't. i think js only returns the offset (if your app is global this is kind of meaningless as there are plenty of tz w/the same offset but different DST, etc. rules). if you're using flash/flex raw, it's date strings can include the tz which you could parse out. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;160198600;22374440;w Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:299379 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4
