Thanks for your help.
Im not happy with the fact i have to convert but it works now and i can go on with my flow.
Strictly speaking, you don't have to. The time is actually correct. UTC 23:00 is the same as 00:00 UTC+1
It all depends on what you're doing with the date.
It may seem odd that the date is given in that format but as @Steve-Mcl says it depends on what you want to do with it. Suppose, for example, that you wanted to create a timestamp that was 09:00 local time on the day selected in the form. To get that you can simply add 9 hours to the timestamp returned by the form and you will get the correct timestamp.
I want to write a value and a timestamp (date) to a database. So i was trying to use the ui_form for input the value and the date .
in which case, ideally, a database timestamp should be UTC.
Only your presentation layer should handle timezone formatting.
Using UTC in the database prevents issues around daylight saving time DST & much more.
Ok u r right.
Do you think its a good tradeoff to use two entries one for UTC and one for LT?
Yes, that I've seen and used that practice.
