View 2 RepliesSuppose I have a string in U.S datetime format, "2/25/2010" and the server is on U.S East Coast with a timezone offset of "-5". When I convert the string via
Convert.ToDateTime("2/25/2010").ToUniversalTime(), it saved as "2/25/2010 5:00:00 AM" (which is correct as local server time for it is 2/25/2010 12:00:00 AM"
Now, suppose my user is in the U.S central time with a timezone offset of "-6", what I want to do is convert it approriately and when this user from central time do "Convert.ToDateTime("2/25/2010").ToUniversalTime()" type of statement, the datetime saved will be "2/25/2010 6:00:00 AM"
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.
I have been tasked with sifting through the worst classic asp spaghetti i've ever come across.The script runs a series of recordsets in sequence, getting 1 record at a time. As the record is built it takes the id and passes it to the next loop, which gets data, and passes on the id to the next loop. It then continues in this manner and builds an unordered list, kicking out the required html

In my SQL server database I have defined the field emailID as nvarchar(50) and I still get the error messageconversion failed when converting the varchar value abcd@efg.com to type int" I am not trying to convert it int so my guess is SQL server is doing some kind of implicit conversion.

View 1 RepliesI have been messing about with this for hours surely this should be an easy task ....... I have a stored procedured that creates a invoice on a Quotetable one of the parameters is a output parameter Invoice Number this is passed to a label. (Label1) This works great.
I then need to add items to the invoice on a item table so my next stored procedure should take the value of Label1 and update the foreign key quotenumber on the itemtable with the value from label1.
On the aspx page I have a small section for a gridview which shows the current quote with however many items on it using the control
[Code]....
On the ASP page the control for @Quotenumber = Label1 but I get the following error
'Conversion failed when converting the nvarchar value 'Label' to data type int.'

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.
Here is the call:
GetTimezone(Request.ServerVariables["REMOTE_ADDR"]);
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.

I will need the timezone database and be able to use it to calculate/convert from one UTC timezone to another timezone.

I'm trying to write cookies from my website and I'm trying to figure out what implications timezones has over the HttpCookie.Expire property. Should I be passing DateTime.Now.AddDays(1) or DateTime.UtcNow.AddDays(1) or the users's timezone plus a day?
View 1 RepliesWhen 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.
<%#Eval("Published", "{0:MMM dd, yyyy - h:mm tt}") %>
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
