Is there a jQuery function for converting time zones?

For my needs, I care mainly about the continental U.S. (Pacific, Mountain, Central, and Eastern time zones), but a bonus would include the others, too.

What I wonder is if there is a known jQuery function that will return values that take into consideration daylight saving time when converting from one hour to anothertaking daylight saving time rules into account.

I reckon it would be called something like this:

var pertinentDatetime = getDateTimeFor(thisDateTime, thisTimeZone, desiredTimeZone);

Does anybody have or know of such a function?

No, jQuery does not have built-in support for dealing time information like time zones.

Check out Moment.

The following should give what you want:

moment().zone();
