Did you comment out all timezone in the file? There are several places referencing timezone.

Make sure the commented line did not get pushed into two lines.
If that is the case, comment out the second line as well.

<input type='hidden' name='timezone_offset' value='".(float)$timezone_offset."' />


That line is inside a quoted string (i.e., an echo "..."; that spans several lines), so sticking // at the beginning won't work.

Either delete the line completely, or use HTML comment delimiters:

[color=ff0000]<!--[/color]<input type='hidden' name='timezone_offset' value='".(float)$timezone_offset."' />[color=ff0000]-->[/color]


If you make other changes in that section, be careful not to mess up the outermost quotes of the echo's content.

MadCat - Did you try to comment out line and second line if get split into two lines?

Dave - can you use html comment in php files? Never tried and I always thought it will only worked in html files.

MadCat: If you're not comfortable with these kind of changes, maybe you should contract someone to do the work for you.

tl: In this case, the PHP echo function is being used to output a string containing HTML. Since they're in a string, PHP doesn't parse the HTML comment delimiters, it just outputs them along with the rest of the HTML. But deleting the HTML that you don't want to output may be simpler than using the comment delimiters.

Madcat:
You need also to comment out two lines in the registerform.php
located in include/

//$tzselected = ($timezone_offset != "") ? ...
//$reg_form->addElement(new XoopsFormSelectTimezone ...
