SQL Server :: Display Datetime According To Timezone?
Oct 24, 2010
When a post is made to the site/database, it's made as Universal Time. A user can set the site's default timezone from a dropdown menu in the admin area, which saves the selected timezone to a database table (table: DefaultTimezone, column: Timezone). Now, how can I adjust the following code to display the datetime according to the correct timezone, that was set in the database? So if the Timezone column has "US Eastern Standard Time" in it, it would display the published datetime in that format.
My Application hosted at server in time zone which differs from mine. All date in database is not correct for my time zone. How can I set my time zone for Application or how I can convert date to my time zone on output
I have a client side JavaScript that generates a date in JavaScript( new Date(2007,5,1)).
I need this date passed through to a hidden field that the code behind can access.
My issue is that when the hidden field is converted into a DotNet datetime, the time is incorrect. This is because the JavaScript is including timezone info from the client browser.
DotNet is then using this info to recalculate the time based on the difference between the server time and the client time.
What i need from the JavaScript is just the year, month and day.
I don't want to pass through 3 int values to my code behind as this will be a major change to the whole app.
What is the best way for me to accomplish this?
If i can set a UTC time with no timezone info I think that might work.
If my user is in California and they have their computer set to PST, it's 1:00 pm there. If my server is set to EST, the current server time is 4:00 pm.
I need a way to get the timezone difference between the client and the server, either in Javascript or C#. In my example, I would get 3 (or -3, doesn't matter).
Does anyone know how to do this?
EDIT: Possible solution for RedFilter
Doing it all in javascript:
serverDate = new Date('<%= DateTime.Now.ToString() %>'); clientDate = new Date(); diffMin = (serverDate.getTime()-clientDate.getTime())*1000*60; //get difference in minutes
I am trying to store a SQL Server datetime into MySQL datetime field, but MySQL stores the date value as all zeros. I use this function to trim the fractional part from the SQL Server datetime, but get the same result when trying to store it in MySQL.
<script type="text/javascript"> function ClientTime() { var dt = new Date(); var ss = dt.getSeconds(); var mm = dt.getMinutes(); var hh = dt.getHours();
how do i display a datefield field e.g. 07/27/2010 08:00:00 as Tuesday, July 27, 2010? (i want the time part but i couldnt find any fucntions that display the date in text mode?)
I am creating a SQL procedure and need to read the data back into a gridview in that format.
I have a DateTime stored in UTC time that I'd like to display to the user in their local time from within a GridView control. How can I convert my DateTime to the user's time (not my server's local time)? Here is my current field as it appears in the GridView Columns collection:
I am using Calendar to display Date in Textbox. my Problem is that it works Ok in localhost but when I had uploaded the same, error come "Unable to convert String to datetime".
I am trying to insert "Date" and "Time" in database table (both are separate columns) using below code:
string query = "Insert into tempTable(List_Id, Date, Time) VALUES('" + lblId.Text + "', @Date, @Time)"; SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand(query, connection); connection.Open(); TimeSpan time = new TimeSpan(); time.ToString(); cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@Date", Convert.ToDateTime(DateTime.Now.ToShortDateString())); cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@Time", Convert.ToDateTime(DateTime.Now.ToString("HH:mm:ss"))); cmd.ExecuteNonQuery(); connection.Close();
Above record is inserted in DB like below:In Date column: 12/29/2014 12:00:00 AMIn Time column:12/29/2014 5:30:46 PMDatatype for "Date" and "Time" column is "datetime"I want that: as I save the Date and Time in DB table, it should display same date and same time what is saved in DB table not current date and time.I tried below code to fetch saved records from table, after inserting Date and Time in DB:
string query2 = "Select Date, Time where Id='" + itemId + "'"; SqlCommand cmd2 = new SqlCommand(query2, connection); connection.Open(); SqlDataAdapter da = new SqlDataAdapter(query2, connection); DataTable dt = new DataTable(); da.Fill(dt); lblDate.Text = DateTime.Parse(dt.Rows[0][0].ToString()).ToString("dd-MM-yyyy"); lblTime.Text = DateTime.Parse(dt.Rows[0][1].ToString()).ToString("HH:MM tt");
But currently it is giving me below output : Date:29-12-2014Time:18:04 PM (current time)..
Why its showing current date time in place of saved record ??
i have created a table with column like date (datetime), employeename (varchar) and their designation (varchar).. am using sql server 2005 and vb.net
I want to display this information in gridview.. i also displayed the inforamtion, but what the problem is the display of date is 4/2/2010 12:00:00 AM.. i need to display only the date in the gridview as 4/2/2010 under the date column .
in my asp.net_vb web there is a text box (textbox1) in which a date is dispalyed from database (eg 21-Mar-2012) in another text box (textbox2) i want to display
if the date is less than 30 Jun then the textbox2 should display 1 Jul+the year of textbox1
if the textbox1 date is greater than 30 Jun the text box2 should display 1 Dec + the year of textbox1
I am making a page that accepts post data from any number of pages that I cannot change, access, or in any way control.
I need, in one way or another, to get the timezone of the user. I know, ideally the posting page would do this, but I cannot access these pages.
First, there is javascript. I can get the javascript function to return (or change a label to) the correct value, but the problem is I need this info before the postback. I've been trying to write the timezone name on another page and read that page, but I have no idea how to begin to do that? Any other workaround to use the javascript is welcome, or any way to force call this before Page_Load is called?
[code]...
Basically, this works in debug mode, but when it's live only an empty string is returned. I am baffled? Is there any better way to read data from a page? I am using Request.ServerVariables["REMOTE_ADDR"] to get the ip, and that seems to be correct, since it inserts the correct ip into the database I'm using.
I have an ASP.NET web application that requires users to select their appropriate time zone so that it can correctly show local times for events.
In creating a simple approach for selecting the time zone, I started by just using the values from TimeZoneInfo.GetSystemTimeZones(), and showing that list.
The only problem with this is that since our application is primarily targeted at the United States, I'd like to show those entries first, basically starting with Eastern Time and working backwards (West) until I reach Atlantic time.
