Question

i have a grails project

Customer customer = Customer.get(params.id)

where customer is a domain class

i need to display

Date date = customer.createDate

in user local setting

i can use java or grails or groovy or html or javascript to do that

Example:

if date  = "2012-01-01 00:00:00.0" in GMT
then user must display it as "2012-01-01 01:00:00.0" in London (GMT +1)

any help to use user local setting to display date?
