It's pretty useless and unreliable since user's clocks/timezone settings are incorrect far too often... YMMV
I agree with you, clock settings are incorrect way too often, I just checked my own, and I see that the time is correct, but the Timezone is at GMT, while i live in GMT+1, but in summer, it's GMT+2. That brings me to the next point, what about DST? I've read your complete draft, and it doesn't say anything about DST, What should browsers send for my country? +0100 or +0200? Tijnema Ps. what's the next thing we send to the browser? We already sent a lot of info through the user-agent header... Next year we send our computers specs to the server so that we get a site that is made for the performance of our computer? -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
