Adjust for Time Zone Differences?

[xtendscott]

I have a host in Eastern Time and I want the time in Pacific time. (3hr difference).

What is the best way to set Mytime = now() - 3hrs?

I haven't dealt much with time manipulation.

Thanks in advance.

xtendscott, for the 1st question, try:

3 hours ago:  
<cfset myNewTime = #DateAdd('h',-3,now())#>
<cfset myTime = timeformat(myNewTime , "hh:mm:ss tt")>

If you wanna get more complicated you can use the LSTimeformat() function,

The second question use the dateformat() along with myTime, as:

<cfset myNewDate = dateformat(now(),"mm/dd/yyyy")>
<cfset together = #myNewDate # & " " & #myTime#>
