Hi,
This thread inspired me to prototype my own world clock. And, yes the
Date
object does provide the means to convert local time to remote time IF you
have the remote location's GMT offset value to plug in. I think this is
the
data Corban was asking after. http://wwp.greenwichmeantime.com/ and
Wikipedia maybe good general information sources, but I haven't been
able to
find a nice tidy list of locations and their GMT offsets that I can
effortlessly implement in Flash.
Regards,
