Hi Jacobo,

You can use DateAdd, all the information is here http://our.umbraco.org/wiki/reference/umbracolibrary/dateadd

Post back if you need further info.

The problem with just adding a set amount of time is that it won't always be correct if you need to adjust for Daylight Savings Time.

 I've added a routine to some of my projects that uses the .NET TimeZoneInfo class:

    public static string getLocalTime(int nodeID)
    {
        string nzTimeZoneKey = "New Zealand Standard Time";
        TimeZoneInfo nzTimeZone = TimeZoneInfo.FindSystemTimeZoneById(nzTimeZoneKey);
        string usTimeZoneKey = "US Mountain Standard Time";
        TimeZoneInfo usTimeZone = TimeZoneInfo.FindSystemTimeZoneById(usTimeZoneKey);

        Node SnowReport = new Node(nodeID);
        DateTime nzDateTime = TimeZoneInfo.ConvertTimeFromUtc(SnowReport.UpdateDate.ToUniversalTime(), nzTimeZone);

        return nzDateTime.ToString("d MMM yyyy") + " " + nzDateTime.ToString("HH:mm");
    }

Convert the server time to UTC and then convert the UTC to local time.

Thanks a lot Rich Green, that worked perfectly!

Paul, I'm using just XSLT at the moment but your solution seems a pretty elegant and good one... When I have the time to really do things properly I'm sure I'll revisit this thread to get your code ;).

Thanks a lot to both!

I have also used a similar function in other projects and called them from within XSLT - it works very well. I might go make a suggestion in the Umbraco 5 forum :)
