texte = Listmates,Does anyone have some code or thoughts they might share for the following time zone problem?Since my server is located in the US Central Time Zone, I'm storing a time zone preference in my database as the offset of Central Time (+1 for Eastern, +0 for Central, -1 for Mountain, -2 Pacific).
