What timezone is displayed? #10

Closed marv-engine closed 10 years ago

marv-engine commented 10 years ago

Make it clear what timezone is used to display times on each page. For instance, in Recent transactions, the column title can include the timezone.

Also, see https://demo.masterchain.info/simplesend.html?tx=52df56253ec36c6b4883fc8844781eff05e7f02bba65c2f69f07aeaebeec4399&currency=TMSC It shows 2014-03-12 14:41:44 UTC, but I think it's actually EDT (about 25 minutes ago).

All times on the site are in the timezone of the browser. Removed the wrong UTC string: https://github.com/grazcoin/mastercoin-tools/commit/7cff5c7d1bc1461e60eb76d93577e497de2a90ff

Can you add the time zone to the column heading? Note that time can appear to go backwards for one hour when going from daylight savings time to standard time.

Also, I think users who travel across time zones a lot would prefer to be able to choose a fixed time zone no matter where they are.
