function dateBtn_Click ()
{
var Mstring = " A.M., Standard Time.";
var solstice2K = new Date;
solstice2K.setUTCFullYear(2000, 5, 21);
solstice2K.setUTCHours(01, 48);
var localDate = solstice2K.toLocaleString();
var pos = localDate.indexOf("2000")
var localDay = localDate.substring(0, pos - 10);var localHr = solstice2K.getHours();
if (localHr > 11 )
{
localHr = (localHr - 12 );
Mstring = " P.M., Standard Time.";
}
var localMin = solstice2K.getMinutes();var msg = "In your location, the solstice is on " + localDay +
", at " + localHr + ":" + localMin + Mstring;
TheApplication().RaiseErrorText(msg);
