How to get Timezone while formatting the date

[lchen]

I need to format date in MM/dd/yyyy HH:mm z format

If I use toUSShortDateTime(), I get date in MM/dd/yyyy HH:mm format. Timezone information is missing

For eg. the date after formatting is

2010/10/08 14:58

and I need it in following format.

2010/10/08 14:58 EDT

How can I get timezone information?

That's not a built-in format, so you'll need to define a custom formatter. The timezone can be derived via standard JavaScript Date APIs on the Date instance that is passed to your formatter.
