Problems

#1
Somehow, shows correct time except the day is one day behind.

#2
Logs out of my vbulletin automaticlaly when I click on the world time zone link to enter the page

			<tr>
			<td style="padding-left:5px; padding-right:5px" height="18" align="center" bgcolor="#F5F5FF">
			<font SIZE="2" color="#FF9900">
			<img border="0" src="http://www.talkjesus.com/designs/radio_dream/buttons/lastpost.gif" width="16" height="14"></font></td>
			<td style="padding-left:3px" height="18" align="left" bgcolor="#F5F5FF" width="100%">
			<div class="smallfont">
		<a href="http://talkjesus.com/worldtimes.php" style="text-decoration: none">
		World Time Zones</a></div></td>
			</tr>

That is the code portion from my forumhome template.

This would 0wn if you could select some timezones from that list and display it on the forum home or CMPS (VBa?)

Where is that located in your forumhome template? I have mine in the navbar. Try adding it to the navbar or footer and see if it still happens (which I'm betting it won't).

It 0wns now.

Not for me :P
I want my users to have the information about timezones on the forumhome, where all the other important info is posted.
They plan events and stuff, and it would suck if they had to switch to other forums just to get the current time in another timezone.
I'd like it very much if it could be ported to the forumhome or even better, to the CMPS

It already has it's own page, just link it.

If that's all it takes to confuse you, then we are in trouble.

All seriousness aside, I won't convert this for use with CMPS for 2 reasons. First, I don't run it so no way for me to test it. Second, it can be a nightmare getting things like this to work on CMPS.

As far as doing it for the forumhome, all you would have to do is take the template and put that code where you wanted it. Look at the main template and you will see what I mean. If you have any questions then, then let me know and I will see if I can find the time to help you with it.
