Message:

date synchronization prob

Posted by alex on October 31, 2001 at 11:10 PM

dear ppl,

i'm writing a audit trail prog in JAVA for a distributed system.

i can grab the date by using java.util.Date. which is in
'SGT' format. no problem.

however, when i use the same program in jsp, everything goes
haywire. it seems that that the "java.util.Date" gives out the
date in 'PST' format when used for "JSP"

surprisingly, a fren ran my prog at his computer and everything's fine. the date's in 'SGT' format. but as i tried it
out at another fren's pc, the prob reoccured.

why does the problem occur?
how can i make the prog work in JSP with the correct time?
how can i make sure that the problem doesn't reoccur somewhere
else?

hope u ppl can help. :)
