RE: Date & time
But I am not using PHP. I am using HTML and might use JavaScript.

RE: Date & time

<!-- TWO STEPS TO INSTALL CURRENT DATE & TIME (LONG):

1. Put the code into the BODY of your HTML document
2. Change your timezone number and your city name! -->

<!-- STEP ONE: Copy this code into the BODY of your HTML document -->

<BODY>

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
<!-- Begin
var day="";
var month="";
var myweekday="";
var year="";
newdate = new Date();
mydate = new Date();
dston = new Date('April 4, 1999 2:59:59');
dstoff = new Date('october 31, 1999 2:59:59');
var myzone = newdate.getTimezoneOffset();
newtime=newdate.getTime();

var zone = 6; // references your time zone

if (newdate > dston && newdate < dstoff ) {
zonea = zone - 1 ;
dst = " Pacific Daylight Savings Time";
}
else {
zonea = zone ; dst = " Pacific Standard Time";
}
var newzone = (zonea*60*60*1000);
newtimea = newtime+(myzone*60*1000)-newzone;
mydate.setTime(newtimea);
myday = mydate.getDay();
mymonth = mydate.getMonth();
myweekday= mydate.getDate();
myyear= mydate.getYear();
year = myyear;

if (year < 2000) // Y2K Fix, Isaac Powell
year = year + 1900; // http://onyx.idbsu.edu/~ipowell
myhours = mydate.getHours();
if (myhours >= 12) {
myhours = (myhours == 12) ? 12 : myhours - 12; mm = " PM";
}
else {
myhours = (myhours == 0) ? 12 : myhours; mm = " AM";
}
myminutes = mydate.getMinutes();
if (myminutes < 10){

}
else {

};

// rename locale as needed.

RE: Date & time
This will help you to show dynamic time with javascript in your page. Quite sure that HTML cannot do this!
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
<!-- Begin
var timerID = null;
var timerRunning = false;
function stopclock (){
if(timerRunning)
clearTimeout(timerID);
timerRunning = false;
}
function showtime () {
var now = new Date();
var hours = now.getHours();
var minutes = now.getMinutes();
var seconds = now.getSeconds()
var timeValue = "" + ((hours >12) ? hours -12 :hours)
if (timeValue == "0") timeValue = 12;
timeValue += ((minutes < 10) ? ":0" : ":") + minutes
timeValue += ((seconds < 10) ? ":0" : ":") + seconds
timeValue += (hours >= 12) ? " P.M." : " A.M."
document.clock.face.value = timeValue;
timerID = setTimeout("showtime()",1000);
timerRunning = true;
}
function startclock() {
stopclock();
showtime();
}
// End -->
</SCRIPT>

<!-- STEP TWO: Add this onLoad event handler to the BODY tag -->

<BODY onLoad="startclock()">

<!-- STEP THREE: Copy this code into the BODY of your HTML document -->

<CENTER>
<FORM name="clock">
<input type="text" name="face" size=13 value="">
</FORM>
</CENTER>

RE: Date & time
If your server supports SSI, change your file extension to .shtml and do this row:

<!--#echo var="DATE_LOCAL" -->

RE: Date & time
I think I couldn't make my point clear. I am using front page editor in my PC and while checking the perview I got error. I haven't yet tried to upload it in any server.
If you have front page can try it there and let me know about the problem.
