How can I get the timezone name in JavaScript?

Question

I know how to get the timezone offset, but what I need is the ability to detect something like \"America/New York.\" Is that even possible from JavaScript or is that somethi

Answer 1

This gets the timezone code (e.g., GMT) in older javascript (I'm using google app script with old engine):

function getTimezoneName() {
  return new Date().toString().get(/\((.+)\)/);
}

I'm just putting this here in case someone needs it.
