I am making a flash clock that will display time in a number of time zones. <br />
<br />
I am well aware that I can achieve this with the local machine time or server time but I'm thinking I could guarantee the correct time through some public domain.<br />
<br />
Does such a thing exist?<br />
<br />
Basically I would like to do something like this:<br />
<br />
Make a get request to &quot;the-amazing-free-time server.com&quot; maybe passing timezone=gmt in the query string<br />
<br />
server returns a string/xml/date object<br />
<br />
i show time for gmt<br />
<br />
repeat process for new york &nbsp;and tokyo<br />
<br />
Thanks<br />

Flash displays text, vector and raster graphics to provide animations, video games and applications. It allows streaming of audio and video, and can capture mouse, keyboard, microphone and camera input. The ActionScript programming language allows creation of interactive animations, video games, web applications, desktop applications and mobile applications.

A Web service is a method of communication between two electronic devices over a network. It is a software function provided at a network address over the Web with the service always on as in the concept of utility computing. A web service has an interface described in Web Services Description Language (WSDL). Other systems interact with the Web service in a manner prescribed by its description using SOAP (Simple Object Access Protocol) messages. There are two major classes of Web services: REST-compliant web services, and Arbitrary web services.

Web Services

A web server refers to the software that helps to deliver web content that can be accessed either through the Internet or through an intranet. The primary function of a web server is to store, process and deliver web pages to clients. The communication between client and server takes place using the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP). The most common use of web servers is to host websites, but there are other uses such as gaming, data storage, running enterprise applications, handling email, FTP, etc.
