<script type="text/javascript">
    var currentTime = new Date()
      var hours = currentTime.getHours()
      var minutes = currentTime.getMinutes()

      if (minutes < 10)
      minutes = "0" + minutes

      document.write("<b>" + hours + ":" + minutes + " " + "</b>")
      </script>

i wanted to display the time along with timezone.for example 17:35 IST

var now = new Date();
localtime = now.toTimeString();

which will return something like "12:21:44 GMT-0400 (EDT)"

You cannot tell what timezone he is in - just what time they are in based on GMT - use this useful function to get your info though -> http://www.pageloom.com/automatic-timezone-detection-with-javascript
