Convert UTC Time To A Definable Local Time?
Apr 15, 2010
There are probably a million threads about time conversion, but I cannot find the answer to my problem. So I'm making it a million and one...
I have my date/time stamps stored in UTC (ie number of second since the Unix Epoch). How do I convert this to a definable local time in JavaScript? With definable I mean any local time, not necessarily the machine local time.
In PHP I would do it as follows:
Code:
$utc = time(); // current UTC
$timezone = "America/New_York";
date_default_timezone_set($timezone);
echo date("Y-m-d H:i:s", $utc);
The above would give the current date/time in New York. I would like to be able to do this in JavaScript for any time given in UTC.

I need to convert a string containing the time to a real time value so I can insert it in to a time column in my database. tempElapsed = "1:22:33:44:555"
var _tempElapsedHours = tempElapsed.substring(2,4);
var _tempElapsedMinutes = tempElapsed.substring(5,7);
var _tempElapsedSeconds = tempElapsed.substring(8,10);
var _elapsed = Date.parse(new Date(_tempElapsedHours,_tempElapsedMinutes,_tempElapsedSeconds));
The result of elapsed is -1.4243e+012, I was hoping for a time value of 22:33:44

I have a date in my javascript like this: Mon Dec 12 00:00:00 UTC+0430 2011 I need to convert it to a date without the offset (the +0430). I actually changed my computer's timezone to generate this offset - we have uses placing orders on our site who don't use UTC and it's throwing our orders out as they need to select a delivery date but it's passing the date with the offset. How do I convert a date to UTC time?

I know I'm missing something about GMT stuff, the problem is that I don't know what exactly If I follow this steps I wont get the real time (for my country) but 2 h 5 m later. Where is the mistake? You can try the code under this lines:
Code:
var Cdate = new Date();
var Smiltotal = Date.UTC(Cdate.getFullYear(), Cdate.getMonth(), Cdate.getDate(), Cdate.getHours(), Cdate.getMinutes(), Cdate.getMilliseconds());
var Pdate = new Date(Smiltotal);
var Smonth = Pdate.getMonth()+1;

I am building a website for users that exist around the world and need to show the user's "local machine" time and timezone, not the time of the website host server. Is there a javascript function or process to determine this?

I'm looking to do two things on a website - add the time (but the local time where my client is based - not taken from their computer clock) and I want to add the local weather - I know there are services out there, and this is what I have at the moment - but my client wants it text only (so without all the banner info on these services.

We facilitate webinars/conferences and post the date/time of the events on our website.Presently, we list the times in various United States time zones to make it easier for viewers to determine what time the event will take place within their time zone.However, posting the date/time in all the time zones makes the event calendar look too busy,cluttered, and somewhat confusing.Is anyone aware of an html code/script that would allow me to post the times in my time zone (Mountain Standard Time) to where the time is automatically converted to the viewers local time on their computer? If there is a code/script of this nature

I was wondering if it is true that the Date object gets its date from the user's local time, if so, could the user "hack" the time by adjusting his local time?

Does JavaScript have an easy of converting an ordinary integer like 135 into a time format like 02:15? I'm working on a timer that handles the backend with just a plain integer that counts down every second but it needs to output looking like a clock.

teaching myself javascript. my current self-challenge is to write a countdown clock that will tick off the days, hours, minutes, seconds until a certain date.i'm thinking that this should be what's happening in the javascript:
get current date/time (using new Date())
get future date/time counting down to (using new Date(2009,7,7))
subtract current from future (Math.ceil(movie.getTime - today.getTime))
convert resulting milliseconds to back to time format (not sure how to do that yet)write result back to html page (not sure how to do that yet, either)loop the whole thing every 1000 milliseconds.is this a workable idea? it seems the most straightforward way of doing it, but other scripts i've found on the web seem much more complicated.

I have put together a script which does this:
1. Make ajax request (via getHTTPObject(), no libraries is used)
2. Create an iframe with script, src is "blank.html".
3. use iframe.document.write() to execute scripts (inkluding document.write based scripts) in the iframe.
4. call parent window's document to clone the iframe content.
5. Append the content clone to parent body.
Works like a charm in all browsers but IE, where every version - including IE9 beta - hangs on iframeWindow.document.close() with empty cache, leaving the window/tab unresponsible. When I force quit, restart and load the page again (now in cache) it works.What I've tried already:
* Googled.
* called the ajax request callback manually with string instead of request.responseText - it works even with empty cache here.Removed document.close() - resulting in scripts in iframe not executing at all (again, only with empty cache, cached pages works fine).
* Tested to make the ajax request synchronous - no difference.
Console.log trace:
Code:
append() begin
unlimited-scroll.js:160 install() begin
unlimited-scroll.js:194 iframe begin[code].....

I do pretty much all the computer related tasks, which includes computer system repair, audio/video editing, cd/dvd printing and duplication, document format and creation, etc etc. But when it comes to HTML (or other codes) I know very little. But we needed a website, so I use Homestead hosting and the Homestead (offline) Site Builder program.
Anyway, inside the sight builder program, they have the option to insert HTML Snippets. Which I use for various objects, off site tools, and other. But now I need to do something for which I have not been able to find a "premade" html code object, that can perform the task desired. I have searched and searched google and went through many sites, including this one. I have tried to take some codes which I thought I could alter to make it perform, but they just wouldn't work for what I needed them to do.
I need a code that will automate a "specific text message" to change daily, and to schedule a "different specific text message" to appear each day. I need to be able to schedule each days "texts" at the very least 31 days in advance. In other words, I need to make an array (I think that's what it is called) for the entire month:
Day 1 "today's text 1"
Day 2 "today's text 2"
Day 3 "today's text 3"
[code]....
If were possible to make an "array" that would go six months out (or more) that would be very helpful! But the longest that I have seen is one month at a time, so that may be as long as they go, but I'm not sure.On top of all of this, I need these changes to be performed at a specific time of the day. I would like them to be preformed at sunset everyday, but I don't think there is anyway to direct the code to look at like [URL] sunset times or such. So if I can at least choose a specific hour, like 8:00 pm, that will work, I will just have to adjust this every once in a while.
However, I don't want it to change just at 8:00pm in my timezone. I need it to change at 8:00pm according to the website viewers timezone. Is there a way to make the code "look" at the users computer and "get their time" and use that to adjust what text is displayed? In other words, I live in Indiana USA. If someone in Australia looked up the webpage on the 15th day of the month, but it was 9:00pm Their Time. The text I need to be displayed should be for "Day 16" from the array.

I'd like some direction on creating a small piece of Javascript that will populate my <select> boxes.Basically, I have a form for users to create events, with a start time and an end time. (These are the two select boxes).For example:
Code:
<select id="startTime">
<option value="12:00AM">12:00AM</option>
<option value="12:15AM">12:15AM</option>
etc.....
</select>
What I am trying to do is:
1) Have times populated in 15 minute incrementals from 12:00AM to 11:45PM
2) Have some type of "error checking" available to where the End Time must be after the start time. It would be nice for the script to automatically change the end time field to a time that is after the start time.

I do have the countdown script (see link below) to display the time between current time and the date given in real-time. However, I want to achieve to display the time difference between a given start and end time. Right now, it calculates from the current server time to the end time. I want to be able to set up my own start time and end time.

I have scoured the net and found nearly what I'm looking for, but not exactly, and I don't really know javascript, so trying to piece together bits of code hasn't worked. What I need is the script for a live clock with date and time format exactly as follows: Sunday, 07 June 2009, 24:00:00 (GMT+1).I have two separate files with the following code, which gets me close to what I need: Sun Jun 07 19:05:48 2009 Obviously the time is in the wrong place and it doesn't show GMT+1. These are the scripts:
Code:
function update() {
time = Date();[code]....

I'm not really a Java writer, so I don't know how to do this myself, though I imagine it would be pretty simple. I am looking to add a script to a webpage that allows users to input a time manually, and have it converted to GMT/Zulu time and display the converted time. I have seen a lot of time zone conversion scripts online, but they all just convert whatever the current system time is to another time zone. I am looking for a script that allows users to convert a time and show the zulu time, for times other than the current time. The time zone the inputed local time would be in is +4:30 (Kabul). I don't really care about style or aestehtics, just a simple script I can insert into a web page to have a time input field. The converted output time can appear in another field, a popup bubble, etc, again style isn't really an issue. It's really just to help people in my job who need to know what the GMT/Zulu time was for certain local times after the fact. One would think it shouldn't be that hard to just subtract 4:30 in your head, but apparently it is.

I'm using a javascript-based countdown timer that currently uses the client's system time to calculate the countdown. I assume that this line of code is where this is performed:
Code:
I'm trying to make the script use server time instead as some people may have wrong dates/times set or live in different time zones etc.
So what I did was use a bit of php:
PHP Code:
This gives a result but now the countdown is 30 days off. I am testing on my local xampp server (which also uses system time) so there should be no discrepancy. I also tried adding
Code:
But no difference.
I can post the whole script if required but it is reasonably long.
