>          Key: STR-2388
>          URL: http://issues.apache.org/struts/browse/STR-2388
>      Project: Struts Action 1
>         Type: Improvement

>   Components: Taglibs
>     Versions: 1.2.6 Beta
>  Environment: Operating System: All
> Platform: PC
>     Reporter: Ralf Hauser
>     Assignee: Struts Developer Mailing List
>     Priority: Minor
>  Attachments: WriteTag.java.patch
>
> As per http://www.mail-archive.com/struts-user@jakarta.apache.org/msg54524.html,
> with TimeZone.getDefault() the Date.toString() method takes the server default.
> Since  java.util.TimeZone.setDefaultZone() takes jvm global property
> "user.timezone" or in absence of this "user.country" and "java.home", this
> cannot be used to vary the timeZone on a per session basis.
> An alternative implementation approach might be to
> 1) add a String org.apache.struts.Globals.TIMEZONE_KEY =
> "org.apache.struts.action.TIMEZONE" like we do for Locale
> 2) extend the bean:write as per the patch attached next
> 3) extension of TagUtils in analogy to
> org.apache.struts.taglib.TagUtils.getUserLocale() or rather directly
> org.apache.struts.util.RequestUtils.getUserLocale()
