don't use [request] in the title

I like your idea. Wouldn't be too hard to do, either.

ohh never thought of that.. that'd be gr8

To get it to display like that would take a hack, but you should be able to stick "Timezone: $userinfo[timezoneoffset] GMT" in postbit.

It would display something like "Timezone: -5 GMT".

In showthread.php, find

      $post[pmlink] = "";
    }

and add right after it

$gmtime = gmdate("U",time());
$localtime = $gmtime-($userinfo[timezoneoffset]*3600);
$localtime = date($timeformat,$localtime);

Then in postbit, do something like

User's local time: $localtime

Untested but it should work.

Edit: I changed a bit that I realized wouldn't work.

Both went through and gave the results expected, only thing is this line:

$localtime = $gmtime-($userinfo[timezoneoffset]*3600);

I had to chabge it to:

$localtime = $gmtime+14400+($userinfo[timezoneoffset]*3600);

So that I can get the correct time, this might be my server, but it worked!
