Set To Apply To A Certain Timezone Not Users Computer Time?
Jul 13, 2010
I was wondering if I could set the script below to apply to eastern standard time and not the users computer time. So it wont confuse users over seas, Im using it to display scheduled announcements as the header.
<script type="text/javascript">
var d = new Date();
theDay=d.getDay();
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 am working on date time picker modification. I am copying the time from one source pasting in text box and then once I click on another box. It populates the time on the basis of time zone difference. Now whenever I am doing vice versa. It is going in loop.
ok im getting tired of looking for an answer and coming up short with scripts that dont work. i have a application that uses GMT for all its times and needs the clients timeoffset for showing the correct times for everything. i use date.getTimezoneOffset() which works fine and shows the daylight savings time correct value of -4 since im in eastern standard time and its daylight savings time right now. well eastern standard time is normally -5 and my dropdown populates with the -4 showing atlanta time. which will confuse the user and then they will pick -5 eastern time which will make everything an hour off. i have a disclaimer now, but i just want to know what the easiest way to display the users time zone name useing the getTimezoneOffset() value. i really want to be able to detect if the user has the adjust for daylight savings checked for their machine.
First off let me say I did do a search of google and these forums before posting this. I have sort of what I want without having exactly what I want and before I proceed further hacking up already working code I figured I'd start a conversation as to whether my goal is at all possible.Currently using (thank you w3schools as I am by no means a javascript expert):document.writeln(new Date()) I get the following: Wed Jul 13 2011 09:24:09 GMT-0600 (Mountain Daylight Time)which would be great for most people, but I'm kind of picky so I want the clock to keep ticking and to show the current time.To do this I use this code(again thank you w3schools):
I am trying to figure out time functions in PHP. However, I come to know these time and date functions work on the Server. I want to calculate what time a user takes to solve a problem. That means I need to know user's machine's timings. How can that be incorporated? Do I need to use Javascript?
i have a small (LAN only) web server running on my computer, and i would like to be able to make a web page in which i can run a program on the server computer from another compuer. say, for instance, i click a button on the web page running on the server, i want that action to run a .exe on the server. i came up with this code, but it doesn't run it server side, it runs it on the computer with the browser.
I'm (still) working on an ISO 8601 date parser. I want to convert at least the formats described here:
http://www.w3.org/TR/NOTE-datetime
Well.. I've got most of it working (via RegEx's) good enough for me but I'm having a brain block when it comes to TimeZone.
The datetime may come with an optional timezone offset (from GMT) as here (the offset is +1 hour from GMT):
1997-07-16T19:20:30+01:00
So... that's the current time there... but my spec is that timezone information, if present, should be used to convert the given time to local time. For me, for example, this would be -5:00 from GMT.
I've already split the Timezone information: I've got indiviual access to the sign (plus or minus), the hour offset and the minute offset.
So I'm sure there's a nice, simple formula for this... but it eludes me. Or I'm lazy... I can't decide which.
I have date(ex., Thu, 04 Dec 2003 10:35:19 +0500) and I know the timezone(ex., America/Anchorage). Now I need to convert the date into the given timezone. Is it possible to achieve this thru js api's?
I have my code php like that: <?php //Get the data from system and return in EU format function ShowDate() { $Date = date("d"."/"."m"."/"."Y"); return $Date; } //Get the time from system function ShowTime() { $Time = date("H".":"."i"); return $Time; } ?>
Now I have two input box <html> <head> </head> <body> Type the date:<input name="txtdate" type="text" class="input" id="txtdate" title="e.g dd/mm/yyyy" value="<?php echo ShowDate(); ?>" size="9" maxlength="10"> <br> Type the time:<input name="txttime" type="text" id="txttime" value="<?php echo ShowTime(); ?>" size="5" maxlength="5"> <br> London: Friday May 21 2010 05:12:00 <br> New York: Friday May 21 2010 00:12:00<br> Hong Kong: Friday May 21 2010 12:12:00<br> Tokyo: Friday May 21 2010 13:12:00<br> </body> </html>
So.... the important is the user can interactive with the date. If I change the date or time all this values will be change as well. Someone knows how can I do this? The field txtdate I will get from a calendar plugin (javascript) that I already put in my code.
Our application servers are hosted in US Central. So when cookie created by the application it contains US Central Time with DST.
When we use it in India time comparison logic fails as milliseconds are different. In US central logic of comparison current datetime milliseconds with cookie date time milliseconds work gr8. Any way so that It work in India too.
I have a countdown clock in bidding. When someone bid within 30 secs clock will reset from 30 sec. In my case clock is reset but timezone difference added. So if bid within 30 sec clock counting down 4 hrs , 30 mins , 30 secs.
My code is below---- "cd".$clock_no is the countdown div var periods = $("#cd". $clock_no."").countdown('getTimes'); if ($.countdown.periodsToSeconds(periods) < 30) { periods[6]+=30; $("#cd1").countdown('change', {until: periods[0] + 'y ' + periods[1] + 'o ' + periods[2] + 'w ' + periods[3] + 'd ' + periods[4] + 'h ' + periods[5] + 'm ' + periods[6] + 's'}); }
I am looking for an example/code to get MAC Address with JavaScript or any other technology for a php based web application. The collected MAC Address will be stored in a MySQL table, 'login' to generate reports. I have found some php scripts helping me do this but it does not get the client computers MAC Address. And these examples work only on localhost. While running it on the server the MAC Address is different than the local one.Can we find out the MAC Address for a clients computer anyways to use in the application and which will be cross browser compatible?

I want to find real IP Address of computers that are connected to my company's website. All users who want to see our website pass from our ISA Server. So, if I want to get their real IP Address with javascript commands, I'll get one and only one IP Addres from anywhere that is our ISA Server address. How I can get real ip address of those computers and compare it with predefined address?
We have a form on our website, which ends up being sent to an e-mail address. The only problem is that some people access this form using public computers. When they press submit , the Internet Mail Wizard pops up and tries to make them setup a new account. Obviously because they are using a public computer we can't have them setting up e-mail accounts on that computer.
Is there any way one can retrieve the local IP Address of a computer? For example 192.168.0.1 as opposed to the internet connection IP address. Or is there a way to retrieve a unique identity of a computer using either PHP or javascript. Or any other sort of code?
I need to create a constructor for a computer object. This object must have three properties: speed, and mem_live mem_dead. Then I need to create a new object using this constructor and then have its properties displayed on the screen.Look at what I'm up to so far:
function Computer(speed, mem_live, mem_dead) { this.speed = speed;
jQuery script I wrote works nicely on one computer, fails on 3 othersManaged to get jQuery datepicker to work nicely with $wpdb.This all seems correct to me:
<li><label for="from">From</label> <input readonly="true" type="text" name="from" id="from" value="Click here to choose!" class="requiredField" style="position: relative; z-index: 100000;" />
On many pages like Yahoo or similar, if we try to save the page by File>Save many of items like images or JavaScripts does not get saved on computer how is this achieved.
