When To Use UTC Date/time Objects
May 21, 2009When would there be a case to use UTC date or time objects? What is the point?

View 1 RepliesI have a file system where users upload files. Using PHP the file is time stamped and that time stamp is saved in a database. This has been going on for months so I have a lot of files with server times saved in the database. Recently the client asked if the date/time could be displayed according to the client's timezone instead of the server's. So, I need a javascript function that will take a PHP formated date string and convert it to the clients time-zone.
So let's say there is a file with a date/time of 07/15/2004 1:15 PM in central time zone and the client is viewing the file today in pacific time zone (2 hrs diff.). I need to show that date/time as 07/15/2004 11:15 AM. I need JS to take གྷ/15/2004 1:15 PM' and somehow convert it to གྷ/15/2004 11:15 AM'. Code:
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]....
Say I put a date and time for like this: Jun-15-04 21:52:06. Here is the form I am using:
<form>
<p><input type="text" name="T1" size="20"><br>
date</p>
<p><input type="text" name="T2" size="20"><br>
90 days from date</p>
<p><input type="submit" value="Submit" name="B1"></p>
</form>
How could I get to show the date 90 days later to the exact date and time. I would enter the data in the first box and hit submit to show in the second box.
how to get the time and date difference? given two time and date with the following format like in textbox A: 2011-05-03 17:35:47.0 and textbox B: 2011-05-03 16:35:47.0 then the output would be: 0 days, 1 hour, 0 minutes, 0 seconds
View 4 Replies View RelatedCan anybody explain to me what it means when a Date object method "operates" under UTC? I know that local time and Universal Time Coordinated (GMT) are different times, but what does that have to do with using the Date methods?
For example, let's say that I create a new Date object like this:
var lovelyDate = new Date(2006, 3, 30);
What then, would be the difference in using the methods
lovelyDate.getDate()
lovelyDate.getUTCDate()
?
Shouldn't they both return 30?
I want to change class of couple objects with one click. I thought I can do it with toggleClass, but I have no idea where to start.
My code:
Code:
<div class="menu" id="menu_area">
<a href="page1.html" class="active" id="1">page1</a><br /><br />
<a href="page2.html" class="inactive" id="2">page2</a><br /><br />
<a href="page3.html" class="inactive" id="3">page3</a><br /><br />
<a href="page4.html" class="inactive" id="4">page4</a><br /><br />
</div>
So at the beginning the first link has class=active, when someone will click the 2nd link I want to change class of that link to "active" and rest to "inactive". And of course if someone will click on "active" link, class should stay the same (class="active).
When calling the function toLocaleString(), javascritp date object returns
yyyy/mm/dd HH:MM:SS depending on the locale settings. Is it possible to
just display date as yyyy/mm/dd without the time?
I need a script that will calculate how many hours is passed from specific

all i have is this. and its not working. i tried putting vbscript in javascript because vbscript isn't working with chrome.how to make the time running? like this time..
<div id="pagedate"> (<em><?php echo date("l"); ?></em>) <?php echo date("F d, Y"); ?> <span id="pagetime"><?php echo date("h:i:s A"); ?></span></div>
I have two questions:
1. How can I make it dynamic, so that the minutes and seconds change even if a page isn't refreshed?
2. How can I make it display the VIEWER'S local time? It shows midnight when it's 9 p.m. my time, or something like that.
Also, would displaying seconds eat up a lot of bandwidth? If so, I might limit it to minutes.
How would I create a hidden field that grabs the date and time that a user registered?
View 6 Replies View RelatedI would like to get the clients date and time (his system time) and
store it somewhere so I can use it in my code later. (insert it to
database!). Any ideas.
I know on the front end using js you can get the date and time on client machine and store in a hidden field so it can be grabbed to use on the back-end to store in a database or even return a special message based on their time. However, I'm not too sure how to begin.

View 1 Replies View RelatedIm trying to put a date/time picker on a form Im making in DreamWeaver. I cant get it to work though. What am I doing wrong?
I put this after <head>
<script LANGUAGE="Javascript" SRC="C:/Inetpub/wwwroot/vacf/javascript/calendarpopup/combined-compact/CalendarPopup.js"></SCRIPT>
<script LANGUAGE="Javascript">
var cal = new CalendarPopup();

and "Select" is what launches it. This is at the text box:
<INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="date1" VALUE="" SIZE=25>
<A HREF="#"
onclick="cal.select(document.forms['example'].date1,'anchor1','MM/dd/yyyy'); return false;"
NAME="anchor1" ID="anchor1">select</A>
I cant get the Script to work.
I'm testing out a script that should display date and time by time zone through use of the innerHTML method. Something is off, neither day or time is being displayed on screen.
function initTime(){
var allTags=document.getElementsByTagName("*");
for (var i=0;i<allTags.length;i++){
if(allTags[i].className.indexOf("tz")==0){
[Code]....
Not sure about the analog type of clock at the moment, and maybe looking at the digital type. Anyone know if it's possible for the code to work for two countries at the same time, both dynamically changing for minutes and seconds, and for them to automatically change for daylight savings times (both countries change on the same dates), on the same page please?

I use UTC in javascript to get the current time, but I have trouble getting consistent results.I have tried two methods:Method 1:
Code:
var d = new Date();
var localTime = d.getTime();

I've used countdown timers etc. that use the Jquery library, so I know it's possible for Jquery to retrieve the date and time for use.I was wondering if there is a way to limit the time a DIV is shown depending on the time or date. For example:
<div class="show_content">
Content
</div>
And I want to show this DIV only from 12 am onwards on the day of 16th December
