for future watchers of this thread: if you test this changing your
timezone, remember to clear the session in a normal world a user
doesn't switch timezones within the same session ^_^

fast_tz_detector returns a SCRIPT().
Of course you can't read it because the page executes it, so it's fine if
you see a blank space:
If you see the page source (using firefox, right click -- View page
source) you'd see a scriptblablablabla/script
On the let's save it to the database topic
Thanks again, Niphlod. I am getting close to finish what i want to do :-)
I can see that I get the time zone. After changing the timezone a few
times, I am not seeing it any more.
I am trying to trouble shoot this. I figured that i need to close my
browser, but this doesn't seem to make it
Niphlod,
Thank you for pointing this out. I have some serious learning ahead. Thank you
for being patient with my questions.
I am good with your approach below. The first suggestion works out for me, and
my time zone issue is resolved.
Thank you!

Hi Niphlod,
def index():
# when people first login, they will get their timezone set.
tz = fast_tz_detector()
print
print 'Hi, you should save this returned by request.vars',
request.vars # if you debug, uncomment this line, and make sure return
tz=tz below

Apologize everyone, and Niphlod,
I forgot to restart my browser, and now the 2 values are consistent ..
my bad for the disturbance.

that seems more a problem with the format of the date than the fact that it
has to be timezone-normalizedwhat language translation are you using ?
PS: what I meant with landing page is that you're sure that the user will
hit that page before arriving to the form.
If you are sure, there's no
i am not using any specific language translation. It should be the default
language.
i also think that it is timezone issue, but not very sure how to do the
normalization. The model i use is Field('modified_on', 'datetime'),
I see that there is no timezone attached at the end.
On Thu, Apr
the whole point of timezone normalization is NOT having a timezone
attached at the end.
It's storing in the database as UTC and displaying as localized to the
users.
Are we sure that you fully grasped what the timezone implementation on the
IS_DATE* validators in web2py and that that idea fits
yes. I am with you. I didn't store timezone in the db, and will be using
UTC for all input to the db too.
I hope to find a way to use the detected timezone to use in the .represent
method for the sqlform.grid.
db.prototype.modified_on.represent = lambda value, row :
Thanks Niphlod. May I know where I can pick up the examples?
Appreciate your help on this.

Btw, I want to say that Niphlod has been very helpful. I am definitely missing
the HTML+JS knowledge, but that didn't stop me to try out in web2py and have a
good attempt on this issue.

hi Niphlod,
I've tried your example in the attachment. The good news is that the user
selected timezone it the profile/register page is working consistently!
Great work! Thank you!
The bad news is that the dynamic detection, and return from the client
session is still not working...

that's exactly what I tested yesterday evening... can you please try to
strip out the next=URL('index') part ?
It's the only thing that is different.

As always, thanks for your help.
I do not think I got an explicit error this time. However, the input is not

ok.
There was an error in your code, a double call to process() .
But there was also on my end: when you do in the same function that shows
the form a fast_tz_detector(), basically you trigger a POST request that
updates the formkey associated with the form.
Blame on me that use LOAD() all

I am really a newbie here. I've tried to upload your plugin to my
application. It's a zip file that i download from Github. It's doesn't
allow me to do the upload, and said my app does not exist or i don't have

yep, github downloads a zip that holds a folder that holds the content

What you need to do is copy the modules and static folders on top of your
