JSTL Core <fmt:setTimeZone> Tag
The <fmt:setTimeZone> tag is used to copy a time zone object into the specified scoped variable.
Attribute:
The <fmt:setTimeZone> tag has following attributes:
Attribute | Description | Required | Default |
value | Time zone to expose as a scoped or configuration variable | Yes | None |
var | Name of the variable to store the new time zone | No | Replace default |
scope | Scope of the variable to store the new time zone | No | Page |
Example:
<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core" prefix="c" %>
<%@ taglib uri="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/fmt" prefix="fmt" %>
<html>
<head>
<title>JSTL fmt:setTimeZone Tag</title>
</head>
<body>
<c:set var="now" value="<%=new java.util.Date()%>" />
<p>Date in Current Zone: <fmt:formatDate value="${now}"
type="both" timeStyle="long" dateStyle="long" /></p>
<p>Change Time Zone to GMT-8</p>
<fmt:setTimeZone value="GMT-8" />
<p>Date in Changed Zone: <fmt:formatDate value="${now}"
type="both" timeStyle="long" dateStyle="long" /></p>
</body>
</html>

This would produce following result:
Date in Current Zone: 23 September 2010 15:21:37 GST
Change Time Zone to GMT-8
Date in Changed Zone: 23 September 2010 03:21:37 GMT-08:00
