RE: [xsl] format-dateTime() - displaying multiple time zones

2009-01-12 04:11:46

My problem is the UTC time needs to appear in the middle of the picture I am 
trying to create, ie: 

12:45 local time [17:45 (GMT)] Monday 13th December 

Just having one picture to render this rather than 3 would have alot of 
benefits for our system. I was hoping there was a solution such as embedding a 
variable holding the formatted GMT time in the picture.

I am using the format-dateTime() function. In my picture I want to
display two times: the local time as well as UTC. Is there a way to
acheive this in one picture? Here's a starting point:

format-dateTime($localDateTime, ' [h]:[m]:[s] ', (), (), ())

No, you have to adjust the date time to UTC and format that.

This is the example I have in my training material for displaying UTC:

format-dateTime(
adjust-dateTime-to-timezone(current-dateTime(),
xsd:dayTimeDuration('PT0H')),
'[Y0001]-[M01]-[D01] [H01]:[m01]z')

I hope this helps.
