TimeZone converter

by arora007 » Wed Dec 15, 2010 4:40 am
Guys... it would be great to have a timezone converter in the "posts a topic"
Actually I come from India where there is no DayLight time saving.
So at times it gets confusing to have a look at something like this..
It would be neat to have the user enter a time in his/her timezone and the reader to read the time(which is converted as per his profile) in his timezone.

* Time: 10:00 AM PT/1:00 PM ET/5:00 PM GMT

We actually used something like this in our banking product bancs (www.tcs.com/bancs)
(infact Date and time.. and not just time)

Thanks arora for the idea--this might already be possible. If you edit your profile right now, you should be able to set your local time, which will modify times that you see across the forum. Is that what you're looking for?

No, I was talking about the time given in the post like Linda did in the link.

Gotcha, that would need to be tied to some sort of calendar feature we would have to build. Cool idea, let me talk to the team about that one. Thanks!
