Bug#561783: konqueror: Javascript reports time wrongly (TimezoneOffset is wrong)
Package: konqueror
Version: 4:4.3.4-1
Severity: normal
Firstly if I type date +%z on the command line, I get +0000 as the
response showing I am in the GMT timezone
If I create a web page with the following text in it
<html>
<body>
<script type="text/javascript">
var d = new Date(0);
document.write('hours = '+d.getHours()+'<br/>');
document.write('time offset = '+d.getTimezoneOffset());
</script>
</body>
</html>
I get different results in different browsers
In Konqueror and Iceweasel I get hours = 1 time offset = -60
In Epiphany and Chrome under Linux I get hours = 0 time offset = 0
In IE, Firefox, Chrome and Safari running Windows XP in a VirtualBox
on the smae machine I get hours = 0 time offset = 0
I believe the second results are correct, the Konqueror and Iceweasel
times are wrong. (I have submitted the same bug under Iceweasel)
[Apologies if this has been submitted before - my
/etc/ssmtp/ssmtp.conf file on my local machine was giving a wrong
e-mail address and although a message was sent out to bugs.debian.org
I never had an acknowledgement, and I can't find the bug by searching
for it]
