A colleague just bought my attention to point (1), (2) was discovered very quickly:
1. They're still running on classic ASP! (At least judging by the address bar).
2. View Source reveals a shed-load of CSS styles defined directly in the HTML file.
A classic case of do as we say, not as we do.

A company I worked for 15 years ago and I helped build their e-commerce sites still is using classic ASP and the topography of the web pages and querystring values look the same. Only thing that's changed are the images, HTML, and CSS.
I expect W3Schools has a money maker with little growth; so they much the same as my former employer, they don't invest in a mature but profitable asset and could care less about security and performance.

Wow. Never noticed this. For CSS, it is rather common practice to have inline CSS for about top 1/3rd of the page.

At the risk of highlighting a horrible quick-n-dirty workaround I wrote a few months back, has anyone else come across this?
I have some Javascript code that creates a date object, appends it to a URL, and does a GET to another page. At the server my (.Net) code then parses the date, but does some horrible clunky stuff to convert what Javascript has created into something .Net can parse. It does this by stripping off any reference to "GMT +0000 (GMT Standard Time)". The dates that Javascript formats when simply appending a date object a string are in the format
ddd MMM dd yyyy hh:MM:ss GMT+nnnn (xxxxxxx) for instance
Fri Mar 24 2017 00:00:00 GMT+0000 (GMT Standard Time)
(BTW, this is an intranet app that ONLY runs on Chrome).
All worked well in testing. All worked well in live... until the user started entering dates after March 26th, when .Net was parsing the date as "01-01-0001". Debugging on my system revealed the problem was the shift to daylight saving (British Summer Time); so I (stupidly, as I suspected at the time!) changed the server-side code to also strip off any text "GMT +0100 (GMT Summer Time)" which is what my browser was sending. I tested, all was well, put code live.
Unfortunately this didn't resolve the problem for the user, and further investigation showed that, although they were on an identical version of Chrome, their system was sending "GMT +0100 (GMT Daylight Time)"; i.e. "Daylight Time" not "Summer Time".
Further investigation showed that the only difference between development and live was that their systems were running Windows 7 Pro, whereas my development system was on Windows 8. So, Microsoft, what on earth possessed you to change the name of the time zone between one version of Windows and another?? So much for forward compatibility...   
And yes, I am very much aware I should not be hard-coding timezone strings, even if this is an intranet app running in my own timezone...
|
|
|
|
|
What about using something like:
new Date( new Date().toUTCString() ).toLocaleString()
I'm just curious.
|
|
|
|
|
I know you aren't asking for help, but what happens when a client either intentionally or by mistake changes their timezone settings? Wouldn't it be better to strip everything after the year? (only append the first 15 characters to the url)

absolutely, yes I agree 100%. Apart from exposing my moment of stupidity/laziness, the point of the post was to highlight the apparently random nature of the change in date formatting between consecutive Windows versions. 99% of the time we don't need that timezone "name" anyway, but for the 1% of applications that DO need it (or at least need it to be CONSISTENT), Microsoft just broke it. Unless it's really a Chrome thing, that checks the platform version... maybe I'm just cynical, but this sounds more like Microsoft's fault than Google's!
(FWIW, Windows SBS2008 also uses "Daylight Time" rather than the newer "Summer Time". I'd be interested to know what W10 says... try
javascript:alert(new Date()) in your Chrome URL bar)
|
|
|
|
|
|
So it was just a brief aberration by MS then, to change the display name of the timezone from "GMT Daylight Time" to "GMT Summer Time". Thus screwing up not only forward compatibility, but backwards compatibility too.
I love this job. 
(And yes, to all other posters who've showed a way around, I understand... I really am just highlighting an issue with MS's naming of time zones!)

Aah, one of our customers had exactly this problem on their Windows 2012 servers - some were showing "GMT Daylight" Time, others "GMT Summer Time", even though they had all been built "exactly the same" (by a third party). It's a region/locale difference, one is English (US), the other is English (United Kingdom). I think it comes from the tzres.dll.

I'm sure you can strip the unnecessary stuff off using a regex, easily.

SyntaxError: missing ) after formal parameters
You've left the TypeScript parameter types in there.

You've corrected the outer function, but not the inner one.

Congratulations, your date is now "implementation-dependent" due to toString.
ECMA-262 wrote: 20.3.4.41.1 Runtime Semantics: ToDateString(tv)
The following steps are performed:
1. Assert: Type(tv) is Number.
2. If tv is NaN, return "Invalid Date".
3. Return an implementation-dependent String value that represents tv as a date and time in the current time
zone using a convenient, human-readable form.
Luckily there is a method toUTCString or a library "moment" to allow to explicitly say the format, since ECMA are more concerned by invariants (that almost no good javascript programmer have problem with) than dates (that almost everyone works with).
