@toshywoshy probably good to clarify the acceptable values (point to a website that has the list, etc? not sure where!)

The list of acceptable timezone values are here (column TZ identifier): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_tz_database_time_zones#List

I have updated the reference file accordingly

Fixes #9819
This solves issue #9819 and provides a way to display user local time for the program for
start_timeandend_time.It uses the users browser defined time zone, and provide the timezone name and the time based.
An event needs to add
timeoffset: "+0200"to indicate the offset of the timezone against UTC.Please note that this value needs to be quoted as a string.
Here are some examples, which have also added into this commit
