Dear Revvers Maybe I'm missing something, but when I convert an internet date like this "Tue, 3 May 2005 14:00:44 -0400" into seconds, it doesn't take account of the time zone component. So for example, if I edit the internet date string to alter the time zone, (e.g. like this "Tue, 3 May 2005 14:00:44 -0300")the "convert" operation gives exactly the same result in seconds.
Now I know that it would be a piece of cake to simply subtract an hours worth of seconds for each hour shift in the time zone field, but before I go ahead and write my "AbsoluteWorldTime" function, I just want to be sure that this doesn't already exist via some other means within Rev. Basically I want a time function that is "time-zone aware" and can figure out what order events occurred in, even if they took place in different time zones. Maybe I didn't read the manual thoroughly enough, but I find it hard to believe that this function doesn't already exist in rev, especially for internet applications that must work with different time zones. Am I just being a big doofus here? Best Gordon _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list [email protected] http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
