FLASH: Date object

[Lee Marrett]

Hello


I am having problems with the Date() object.  I am using .getHours() to find

the local time.  However it doesnt appear to be taking daylight savings into

consideration.  I was under the assumption that gethours() was a local time

method and getUTC was the method that looked at GMT.  My flash clock is

consistently showing the time as one hour behind the time windows is

showing.


Any ideas?
