RE: [xsl] Converting GMT time to user's local time

2007-01-22 02:58:34
Thanks Michael. 
One more question: I only get the user's location, for example:
Singapore or Hong Kong etc.
Is there some kind of mapping where I can match the location with the
time-zone?

Thanks,
Lalit

WIth XPath 2.0 you need to:

(a) ensure that the implicit timezone is the user's timezone (that bit
depends on your choice of processor)

(b) convert your date and time to an xs:dateTime (remember that the
timezone
can change the date as well as the time)

(c) apply the adjust-time-to-timezone function.

All -
I need your help in converting GMT time to a local time of 
any particular user using XSL. 
I receive input XML like from the TV channel provider:
<channel name="HBO">
<movie>
            <name>Braveheart</name>
            <date>24JAN2006</date>
            <showtime>21:00</showtime>
</movie>
</channel>
The <showtime> element has GMT time. I want to convert this 
time to a user-specific time and return it to user in text 
format. Example: If a user logs in from Singapore, he should 
see this time as his own local time and so on.
Thanks.
