You can use Javascript to pull the time off their system clock, assuming their clock is set correctly. Server-side, you can use an ARIN search on their IP to get their location, but in that case you're relying on the IP not being spoofed and/or all of the lookups actually working, which is not a "real world" scenario.

Uhmmmm.... probably not with CGI because that is all executed server side, so I don't think you can access anything on the individual clients unless they expressly submit data to the server. Maybe try some JavaScript?

Using localtime function shows me the localtime from the location where is the server. I couldn't find any environment variable for this either. Thank you for any hint.
