As stupid as this question may sound, I need to know.

What is the GMT offset where the Host Rocker servers are located??

This is so that when people post on my forum, the correct time is shown.


Thanks

Dean

I don't know what language your forum is written in, but in Perl there's a gmtime function (http://www.perl.com/pub/doc/manual/html/pod/perlfunc/gmtime.html) for finding the current GMT and in PHP it's called gmdate (http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.gmdate.php). That way you don't need to convert from HR time to GMT, you just go straight to GMT.
