That's what this code does.
Gets the timezone like CST or America/Chicago for example based on
local settings.
Or is that not what your wanting?

Thanks Karl,
I can grab the time using the Date class in AS3, I'm more stuck on
how to
detect what city they have set in their system preferences or some
other
way to detect what city they are in.
IP address?
Thanks,
David

You could use PHPs date function.

<?php
$timezone = date('T');

or
<?php
$timezone = date('e');
?>
Then flashvars it into your flash clock.
Just a thought.

Hi All,
I'm making a screensaver / air app of a clock and one of the desired
features is to grab the city of the timezone that the computer is
set to.
For example my clock is set to GMT and London, but I could set it to
Eastern Daylight Time and the city to New York or Miami.
Does anyone know if it is possible to grab the city selected
associated
with the time of the computer? (I'm on a mac, not sure if the
setup is the
same on a PC...)
Thanks,
David
