Time Zone customization question?

I have small issue I am trying to resolve. I have designed a custom theme for someone, and it looks great except for when you go to the "Register" page, it stretches everythin out too far, (a fixed width theme). It is the "Time Zone" field on the register page that is causing the stretch, which leads to my question...

Does anyone know how I might edit the text displayed in the time zone pull down on the register page?

For example, I would like to change the selection

"(GMT)Greenwich Mean TIme, London, Dublin, Lisbon, Casablanca, Monrovia"

to something like:

"(GMT)Greenwich Mean TIme, London,Dublin"


Any help would be greatly appreciated.

A quick Goolgle search using the following string ["registration form" "time zone" site:xoops.org] returned the following results:

The solution in that thread will remove the time zone field. Then the new user just updates their time zone in their profile. It's not exactly the solution you are looking for, but it would solve the problem of your theme breaking.

I believe the time zone values are defined in a language file somewhere. You may want to dig around in the folders labeled "language" if you *need* to have the time zone on the registration form.

Hope this helps.

I'd like to bump this thread to see if there is a solution to change the way the timezones are displayed.
