I have a product where I convert some external datetimes to zope DateTime() objects. I save them as UTC as zopes DateTime does by default.
But when these are rendered, the time is offset by two hours.
Ok. I was unclear here. I convert from datetime objects (python) to DateTime (zope) objects. The datetime objects are in UTC format. So are the DateTime objects. On an external system I enter a time of 11:00. The external system then saves the value as 9:00 UTC, which is correct. Taking summertime and time zone offset into account. When I convert to DateTime objects, they are saved as "9:00 Universal". So that is correct too. The DateTime objects are then displayed in Zope/Plone in UTC time. I would expect Zope to represent them in the systems locale 'danish' and display them as 11:00 I have set the "locale danish" directive in my zope.conf, but that doens't change anything. Does anybody have an idea as to what to try out next? -- hilsen/regards Max M, Denmark http://www.mxm.dk/ IT's Mad Science
