How is it a 1/2 hour off? I thought all time zone dividers were on the hour?<

AFAIK, there are some places with 1/2 hour off like Newfoundland/Canada.
Mayeb, Snitz should take that into account.<

Central Australia is also a half-hour. Play around with the value for strTimeAdjust in the FORUM_CONFIG_NEW table and see what you can do.<

As a new user in South Australia, where the time zone is UTC - 9:30, it'd be interesting to know if anyone came up with a solution to this?

I too needed to set a time zone difference at a 1/2 hour boundary. The following mod seems to work.
1. In admin_config_datetime.asp, I changed

Code:
for iTimeAdjust = -24 to 24
to
Code:
for iTimeAdjust = -23 to 23 step 0.5


2. In inc_function_common.asp, I changed the chkSelect function from:

Code:
function chkSelect(actualValue, thisValue)
	if isNumeric(actualValue) then actualValue = cLng(actualValue)
	if actualValue = thisValue then
	        chkSelect = " selected"
	else 
		chkSelect = ""
	end if
end function

to

Code:
function chkSelect(actualValue, thisValue)
	if cStr(actualValue) = cStr(thisValue) then
		chkSelect = " selected"
	else 
		chkSelect = ""
	end if
end function


The chkSelect function failed when dealing with fractional numbers, since it was converting numeric values to long integers, thus truncating time adjustments which are fractions of an hour.
I can't think of any reason why converting both arguments to strings in the chkSelect function should cause problems elsewhere.

You could use csng or cdbl instead of clng.
