GetDefaultTimeZone

Object and Type

Object  : FCApplication

Type     : Method

Prototype

Public Function GetDefaultTimeZone() As String

Description

This method returns the full_name of the default time zone. The default time zone is defined by the is_default flag on the time_zone table. The time_zone table is cached in the FCApplication object, so this method does not cause a database round-trip.

Returns

A string containing the full_name of the default time_zone. If a time_zone has not been set as the default, an empty string will be returned.

Example

The following example builds a drop-down list of time zones. The default time zone is selected.

JavaScript:

<SELECT NAME="TZ">
<%
var defTZ = FCApp.GetDefaultTimeZone();
var TZList = FCApp.GetTimeZoneList();
while (! TZList.EOF) { %>
  <option
  <% if (TZList("full_name") == defTZ) { %>
  selected = true <% } %> >
  <%=TZList("full_name")%>
  <% TZList.MoveNext; %>
  </option>
<% } %>
</SELECT>
