Hi Martin,

And thanks for posting your article.

I really hope to be able to use your "local times in selectable cities" java script on our little support department intranet. It seems our support staff have a hard time remembering that they can't phone our customers in Australia at 10am Pacific time. Well, not without waking someone up!

So I've cut and pasted your script into an HTML editor (FrontPage Editor -- I know that's not great, but it's all I have handy).

Anyway, I'm getting an error message that I can't seem to correct. When I view the script my browser (IE 5.0) says:

An error has occured in the script on this page

Line: 20
Char: 5
Error: 'document.formname.theirzone' is not an object
Code: 0
URL: file://C:\ProgramFiles\MicrosoftFrontPage\temp\pvw32.htm

Do you want to continue running scripts on this page? Y/N"

If I select "Yes" it shows the drop-down window just fine but the window where the time should display is blank.

Can you give me any pointers about why the object is not being recognized? I've combed over the script in my little page as compared to yours (at: http://www.irt.org/articles/js076/) and they match exactly.

Any help would be very much appreciated.

Thanks,

- Mark
