Daylight Saving Time for 3 zones

Hi everyone,

I have 3 different time zones that I'm working with. Basically
converting from UTC to those 3 time zones.

Eastern Daylight Time (GMT -04:00, New York)
Central Daylight Time (GMT -05:00, Chicago)
Pacific Daylight Time (GMT -07:00, San Francisco)

Using C# I know how to detect if Daylight saving time is applied or not
for Eastern Time (Local) but how do I that for Central Time and Pacific
Time?

How can I use 'localZone.IsDa ylightSavingTim e' for Central and Pacific
time to see if Daylight Saving applies or not? If DaylightSavingT ime
is false for Eastern does that mean it's false for Central?
Thanks
Maz.

I created a UTC clock using this: UTCTime = MyTime.ToUniversalTime() Now that we've turned the clocks ahead 1 hour for daylight savings time, the clock is reporting the wrong UTC time. It is reporting UTC + 1 hour. Is this a bug or is there a way I can querey for daylight time and make the adjustment in my application? Thanks.

Hi, I've already found out that .Net Framework 1.1 does not properly handle anything that is related to a non-current timezone.

I'm trying to understand the effects of the Daylight Saving Time rule changes for 2007 in the US. Can anyone tell me how Javascript knows when to apply Daylight Saving Time in the following script? d1 = new Date(2006, 03, 01, 23, 00); d2 = new Date(2006, 03, 02, 04, 00); // Reports "This is ok: The answere should be 4. It is 4". alert("This is ok: The answer should be 4. It is " + (((d2.valueOf() - d1.valueOf())/1000)/60)/60);

I was investigating a function to determine whether daylight saving was being observed on a particular date (given the platform's regional settings) and came across a suggestion at merlyn.com to test the time zone offset on a variety of dates to see if it changes. Based on that, I developed the following checkDST() function which, as far as I can tell, should be sufficient. It checks either the date passed to it or the current date with...
