My questions are:
- What is exactly unix epoch timestamp ?
- How can i use it in PHP to convert ?
- How can i convert base on client timezone ?
I tried many samples to get client timezone:
But I had no chance.
I tried this at last to get client timezone but no chance again :
<script type="text/javascript" src="//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.0.0/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="//cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jstimezonedetect/1.0.4/jstz.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function(){
var tz = jstz.determine(); // Determines the time zone of the browser client
var timezone = tz.name(); //'Asia/Kolhata' for Indian Time.
$.post("url-to-function-that-handles-time-zone", {tz: timezone}, function(data) {
//Preocess the timezone in the controller function and get
//the confirmation value here. On success, refresh the page.
});
});
</script>
