HOW TO show local time for a location based on its latitude and longitude

Here is a GitHub Gist snippet that shows how to get local time for a location based on its latitude and longitude using World Weather Online's Time Zone API & jQuery -

	function time(lat, long) {
	//replace the value for the key parameter with your own
	var url = "http://api.worldweatheronline.com/free/v1/tz.ashx?q=" + lat + "," + long + "&format=json&key={key}&callback=tfunc";
	//reference to jQuery library is required prior to using this function
	$.getScript(url, function (response) { });
	}
	window.tfunc = function (response) {
	var time = "";
	time = "Local Time:" + response.data.time_zone[0].localtime;
	$("#time").append(time); // #time represents a div whose id has the value time
	};

This can be useful in scenarios where you have to display time for a location relative to another.
