To get the time information from Javascript into Cf, you would need to run a
javascript that will send the time information as either a url var or a form
var to a page on the server that will save it as a variable.
The 'next' page will have that information available to it, but the page you
just ran will not.
Eg.
Run index.cfm page.
=contains
<script>
var thistime = new Date();
var req;
req = false;
if(window.XMLHttpRequest && !(window.ActiveXObject)) {
try {
req = new XMLHttpRequest();
} catch(e) {
req = false;
}
} else if(window.ActiveXObject) {
try {
req = new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.XMLHTTP");
} catch(e) {
try {
req = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");
} catch(e) {
req = false;
}
}
}
if(req) {
req.onreadystatechange = processReqChange;
req.open("POST","http://[servername]/[pagename.cfm]";, true);
req.setRequestHeader('Content-Type','application/x-www-form-urlencoded');
req.send("time=" + thistime);
}
}
</script>
Or something like that.

I'm interested. William Seiter's js code works fine, but don't know how to
convert js var into CF var (key to this thing). thanks. Don
