You mean that you need to use the timezone information to know when in the future the time will change (or in the past). I believe that you're correct. I assume that providing the current offset and the timezone as two separate strings would be the most appropriate thing. The offset will provide simplicity for simple applications. The timezone will provide full information for applications that support it and the browser will not need to do much work since both of them are immediately available (Just a sprintf()). What about something like: Timezone: offset; posix_timezone for example: Timezone: +0200; EET-2EEST ? > Correct, so people select the timezone that gives the right time, if the > daylight saving switch is off.

I'll be glad if we can come with a solution that will fit your experienced needs on this subject.
