ActionScript 2.0 :: Time And Date In Flash
Apr 23, 2011
I can get the current date in actionscript using the Date() function, my question is, does it give the same timezone for everyone? When I use it, it gives me the current hour and everything for the Eastern Time Zone (Newyork), but I live in Georgia, so I am eastern timezone, will someone who lives somewhere else, like california, run the code (below) and tell me if the time flash displays is the current time they have on their computer, or if the hours are off... with that said, if it is the same, and flash doesn't give everyone on earth the same time, is there any code I can use to retrieve the current time in 1 time zone no matter where on earth I am when I use the code? [code]

Is there a really simple way of creating a Flash time/date signature? I did a couple videos in sort of a surveilance camera style. So I was hoping to do an overlay with the date and have the time going up in seconds.

I can think of some tedious long ways of doing it, just wondering if there's an easy way to do it in AS3

[URL] I got partial success with the tutorial above, but couldn't figure out a few things.
1) How to save the date and time to the database? Based on web search result on how to find date or time in APS, I thought I could do
[Code]...
but the ASP generated errors on the 2 lines.
2) When executing the file (getURL("http://yourSite.com/processForm.asp",0,"post");
}), it always opens the processForm.asp file in a new window. Can it be executed in the same window or just being hidden?
The tutorial is old, and I wonder if there are new ways to do the things with CS4 or CS5?

I'm working on creating a new look for my portfolio and had a concept.I would like have one movie clip tween in real time 365 frame increments, while another moves in real time minute or second increments.Along with this, I would like to be able to override the passage of time by scrolling an associated scrollbar.The two tweens would be independent of one another.

I've got a php backend which delivers a time (e.g. '07:00:00'). This time is recognized as a string but I need it as a Date. So what I need is: Convert a string '07:00:00' to a Flex Date object. Is there a way to do this (without using regular expressions)?

I have looked around a lot for the answer to this, here and out on the web, I just can't believe it can't be done.I have certificates that the user fills in their name once they successfully pass the on-line course, this works and prints fine. The decided they wanted the current date and time to show up on the certificate for their records. The date and time displays correctly, but when you go to print the certificate you get the default numerals, not the date and time, once the print dialogue box goes away after printing, you can see it change back to correct day and time.

I'm sorry to ask such a stupid question but the documentation is not clear to me. And I really don't want to screw it up. I am creating a flash piece that needs to change its content based on the date eastern time. so that the content on monday 00:00:00 will be different than the content sunday 11:59:59. I have everything set up for local time ie:
Code:var currentDate:Date = new Date();
But do to legal issues involved I need to set this up so that even if the user is in Alaska the content will change based on Eastern Standard Time.I'm sure I can use timeZoneOffset, but I'm just not sure how to implement it.

I have done the implementation of displaying time. but it is not updating the time dynamically. Only the values which are taken from system are displayed on display.
I have the following simple code:
public var date;
addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,enterFrameHandl er);
private function enterFrameHandler(event:Event):void
{
[Code].....
Text box is defined as dynamic text. get the time updating dynamically.

I have a Date value and I want to add to that date 30 seconds plus.Example:
Code:
var serverTime:String = auctionFormatServerTime[0]
serverFormatDate = new Date(serverTime);
trace(serverTime) // Thu Mar 10 18:33:48 GMT-0300 2011
I need the following date: Thu Mar 10 18:33:48 GMT-0300 2011 to become:
Thu Mar 10 18:34:18 GMT-0300 2011
This means that the retrieved Date now has 30 more seconds...

There must be a kind person out there on the WWW who could spare me 5 mins and rescue me before I top myself! I have a movie clip on my stage with 8 buttons in it that all sequentially fade in via an alpha tween 0 to 100%. All the buttons simply link off to different URL's on click. What I want to do is when a button is clicked I want to store pressed along with the date and time it was pressed into a .csv file.
