In the Time Zone page on this site there is this statement: "The time is taken from your browser". Could you share the code used to grab the user's time zone from her/his browser? Thanks!

It uses the JavaScript Date object.

Date.getTimezoneOffset() returns the offset from GMT

There are many more.  Try searching a javascript site for them.  Or view the source of the page.  The code used is not hidden in anyway.
