Sadly I don't think Tapestry supports TimeZone, only Locale.



<wistful thinking>
I was thinking it would be great (and relatively easy) to duplicate the current Locale support for TimeZone.. then the datepicker could be changed to work with that information..

While you're at it, someone could think about adding lastModified and expires. :) :) (though I think those would add two more render cycles to do it right)

No. Not locale. I'm developing an application for an US company, which
operates across all US regions and timezones. When users choose a date/time,
the users thinks locally, but the server does not know the timezone of the
user. So the questions can be detailed as:
1. whether Tapestry automatically sniffs the browser's timezone?
2. if I know the customer's timezone, can I tweak the datepicker's
translator to translate the date/time based on the timezone?

Thanks.

Does DatePicker consider users' timezones? Or is there a way to let
DatePicker translate date in different timezones for different requests?

Thanks.


I'm not sure I fully understand you but:

translator:date,pattern=dd MMM yyyy allows you to format and show dates
as in
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/api/java/text/SimpleDateFormat.html

Whether your month name is displayed as February instead of Febrero for
example, depends on the Locale of you application, There is a list of
Java supported locales and also you can force your app to serve only in
certain locales, otherwise the locale of your browser will tell tapestry
which locale to use.

best regards.

Raul.
