Question

I am hosting a program that is servicing people from timezone GMT+1000. However, my timezone is at GMT +800, and people who login into my server sees time at +800.

I am using Sinatra and the time data is stored is POSIX time. Is there a way to show the time in GMT +1000 for my user’s convenience?

Thanks.

I found the solution. Works on Ruby 1.9.2

time=Time.new
=> 2012-02-09 09:52:10 +0800 
time.localtime("+10:00")
=> 2012-02-09 11:52:10 +1000
