Something to the extend of:

static 
{
SimpleDateFormatter sdf = new
SimpleDateFormatter("yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm");
sdf.setTimeZone(TimeZone.getTimeZone("Europe/London");
}

user inputs time in above format in jsp, then I do:

sdf.parseDate(inputtedDate) and do a getTime and then
create a java.sql.Timestamp with the long value and
put that in the DB. Mysql displays is as one hour
later, the Dutch time, which is expected.

When displaying it manually, I use the same sdf above
and do something like:

sdf.formatDate(new
Date(resultSet.getTimestamp("time").getTime())).

Not 100% sure, as I do not have the code with me, but
somthing to this extend. The sdf is a static in a
singleton utility class.

And, as I said, it only gets messed up after DST kicks
in. Maybe "Europe/London" is somehow (wrongly)
interpreted as GMT?

I live here, but I'm not Dutch.  :)
