The date picker uses JavaScript. So, it displays the date on user's system.
You can check the Visualware.coom for the tools and technologies that you can integrate for capturing the physical placing of the IP address.

I have worked on a similar issue.
You can use a Javascript date function to get the GMT offset on the client machine. This can be placed into a hidden field for submission back to the server.
i.e.
function ServerTime(){
var d, tz;
d = new Date();
tz = d.getTimezoneOffset();
return tz
}
Where the result is the number of minutes offset on the Clients machine
One the Server side you can run the same JScript routine within Global.asa to get the Server offset to GMT.
Then just write some simple function to add or substact the offsets as required.
We have used this very successfully to save all date formats into GMT time in the database, and then present the date to the User at the User's locale, or to take the Server's time for a date/time stamp and convert it to GMT
Hope this helps.
