so you are calling it the wrong thing when you import see here: http://pytz.sourceforge.net/#example-usage Example & Usage Localized times and date arithmetic >>> from datetime import datetime, timedelta >>> from pytz import timezone >>> import pytz >>> utc = pytz.utc >>> utc.zone 'UTC' >>> eastern = timezone('US/Eastern') >>> eastern.zone 'US/Eastern' >>> amsterdam = timezone('Europe/Amsterdam') >>> fmt = '%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S %Z%z' -- Joel Goldstick _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
