Hi,Is there any way to correct the forum clock? At the moment it's showing 12:28 - is there a way for a user to change the offset from GMT on their clock to 0? It's pretty meaningless, since some people will be on BST, others on GMT, others on CET etc... so I was just wondering if there's a way of changing it.TIA--

Ditto that, your clock is some 16 hours behind mine!

No, DCScripts doesn't allow the user to set his or her own time.Also, note that the forum is not displaying the INCORRECT time, it states next to the time that it is displaying EST, Eastern Standard time.[Dec-16-03 03:14 PM EST]Eastern Standard time is the time for the Eastern Seaboard and many inland Eastern states in the USA. It is GMT -0500 hours.It's quite easy to make the instant deduction in your head when you know the proper offset.I can't see them changing the forum time to GMT or any other time zone soon as a majority (though MANY users are not from the US or Canada, most are) are from North America and easily recognize and can convert from EST as neccesary.Tim Frost
