    You can store the proper TimeZone for each your client (initialize it during SessionStart or Login for example) and then use it for provide the proper Time within all your data-based controls.

    I've found the following code snippet for getting the TimeZone offset for the client from JavaScript:

    <html><head></head><body>
<script language="javascript">
ourDate = new Date();
document.write("The time and date at your computer's location is: "
+ ourDate.toLocaleString() 
+ ".<br/>");
document.write("The time zone offset between local time and GMT is " 
+ ourDate.getTimezoneOffset() 
+ " minutes.<br/>");
document.write("The time and date (GMT) is: " 
+ ourDate.toGMTString() 
+ ".<br/>");
</script>
</body></html>
