Hey everyone,

I’m trying to figure out how to start a flash animation at 7PM PST every Tuesday PST—this animation would signify a ‘live chat.’ I can’t figure how to make it PST specific, or how to do automate it every Tuesday, and I’m not sure if it’s possible with just AS2.0 and no php involvement. I looked up the “get.Timeshift” function in the help, but it didn’t make sense to me.

Anyone’s insight would be very appreciated!

Thanks!

Chris
