1 hour server time difference 1

[onressy]

Hi i'm display the day and time on a home page like so:
<%= FormatDateTime(Date, 1)%>&nbsp;<%=DateAdd("h",-1,time())%>

I'm using -1 for the time because the server location is 1 hour off homepage location. How can i format the date so that it reflects this 1 hour difference as well?

Thanks

One hour off from which time zone? Are you planning on having visitors from any time zones other than the one you're currently in?

You could align the time with the server first using

net time \\server /set

Have both the server and client got daylight savings switched on?

aligning the time is not the issue, i have teh time correct in setting it -1 from server time. When a user goes to the website for a city, i want to display the city time and date. My issue is with the date, i'm grabbing the date from the server but when 12:00 hits in the city, the <%= FormatDateTime(Date, 1)%>&nbsp;<%=DateAdd("h",-1,time())%>

will show the corect time buit the incorrect date. any suggestions? Thanks

You need to subtract 1 hour from the DateTime. Date returns the date. Time returns the time. Now returns both, so....

[tt][blue]<%= DateAdd("h", -1, Now)%>[/blue][/tt]

I don't have IIS handy at the moment, so I can't help you with the formatting, but that part should be pretty easy for you.
