Can you share the page where you have implemented this as well as the plugin version number you are using?
I cannot reproduce the issue with your code.
Same error. I have an additional button (with timezone CDT) at the end of the page that generate an error, the displayed button(s) are using the currentBrowser for TimeZone

Confirmed. Will think of a solution there.
Problem is that the official IANA time zone would be “CST6CDT“. But that the currentBrowser picks up the “wrong” one is a problem. Maybe we can sneak CST and CDT as individual ones in or rewrite them to the official one.
Will keep you posted.
thank you! I am using CST6CDT now. Have a beautiful day.
This should be mitigated with the latest update. At least for the “currentBrowser” setting.
When you set the Time Zone manually, please use a valid IANA time zone.
