yes, we had big issues with a app in Flex 1.5 and now 2.0 because of this.
We coded around it by massaging the dates in AS with the clients timezone
offset.  Works well, except for those folks living in Arizona.  For some
reason the Flash Player does NOT pick up their offset correctly.  Outside of
the Navajo Nation, Arizona does not follow day light savings, yet the Flash
player seems to think they do.

   Just wondering if anyone experienced this, but we have a VO coming from
Java that contains a date field. Well I format the field using the coe
below:

<mx:DateFormatter id="df" formatString="YYYY-MM-DD" />

*

private
* *function* displayLastBillingDate( item:Object, column:DataGridColumn
):String {

*  return* df.format( item.lastBillingDate );

}

And what happens is that this code works almost to well. It takes into
account the end-users PC timezone! So the date coming back from the server
is 2007-05-01 00:00:00, so for someone in EST it shows properly as
2007-05-01 (cause we are in EST) but for someone in CST is shows
2007-04-30... anything we can do about this? How do I get the end-user
timezone setting ?
