[RFC] Local time handling by Javascript

[xerces8]

The Javaranch forum started ti use something like this.
It is great.
I don't even have to log in and I have all times in my zone (and format).

I think this would be great addition to 3.1 (3.1 is already using HTML5, so why wait for 3.2 for this?), but instead of <span> use <time> tag like this:

Code: Select all

<time data-time="1234567">01 Oct 2011</time>

where 1234567 is a raw number that could be converted to correct format with javascript.

It would also solve issue #2 in this post
