ASP.Net Core: Get Client (User) Computer Date Time

I am working on it. I will get back to you soon.

Hi AliYilmaz,

You can't get the DateTime form the client PC using code behind because the code behind is executed on the SERVER.

You can use JavaScript to get the current DateTime from the browser.

Controller

public class HomeController : Controller
{
    public IActionResult Index()
    {
        return View();
    }
}

View

<span id="lblClientDateTime" style="font-weight:bold"></span>
<script type="text/javascript">
    window.onload = function () {
        var dt = new Date().toLocaleDateString() + " " + new Date().toLocaleTimeString();
        document.getElementById('lblClientDateTime').innerHTML = dt;
    }
</script>

Output

11/15/2023 3:42:50 PM

Hi,

Well, can you try this site? Why doesn't this site get the time in the browser? Gets UTC time.

Also, how will I send the time to the controller this way?

Use HiddenField. Set the value in HiddenField and use it in controller action method.

Can you make an example?

Have you tried the other js editor I mentioned?

Is this the right way to do this?
