time in flashMX

[bigbadabob]

Hello everyone!

I have a world clock that displays the time in LA, newyork ....... etc. This works by getting the time from the users machine/LAN. Does anyone know how i can connect to a server to get the time from there and not the users local machine so as to display the time uniformly across the world. A connection to a timeserver would be great but a somple connection to my own web server would be fine.

Is php required for this??

Hope someone can help!!

Thanks
