get timezone by country code jquery

I try to build weather service. Country name that I got from main server came in code format (Like US, UK, CA, etc.) Based on that server info I need to get local time zone by city name. I found Moment js Timezone, but there they using full name of country, so I need to convert country code to full country name or get time zone by city name in other way. Any ideas how to do that?

To complete the database included with jquery.detect_timezone (thanks to Farhad) and your "moment timezone" solution

I've found that maxmind's database provides mapping file between regions and time zones from Olsen database (aka tz database): http://www.maxmind.com/timezone.txt

Easy to parse and trying to compare to the full name country !

EDIT:

(i just omit to precise the "time" of "zone" is missing, juste the names) :D
