is there a way to display a ticking clock in a web page using
javascript? but not in a textbox, rather as text that i can change the
style, font etc.

Was there ever a script element attribute called 'langage'? ;-)

I think you need to use a spell checker.
var calDays=new Array("Sunday", "Monday", "Tuesday", "Wednesday" ,
"Thursday", "Friday", "Saturday") ;
var clockID = document.getEle mentById('clock ');
function pad(i) {
//simple function to just add a zero in front of numbers less than
zero (so we get 12:05 instead of 12:5)
if (i < 10) {
i = "0"+i;
}
return(i);
}
A more concise function for this case is:
function pad(i){
return (i<10)? '0'+i : ''+i;
}
function doClock() {
setTimeout( "doClock()" , 1000 );
Simply setting a timeout of 1000 ms does not guarantee that the function
will run at exactly 1 second intervals, otherwise you could just use
setInterval.
t = new Date();
m = t.getMonth();
d = t.getDay();
dt = t.getDate();
y = t.getFullYear() ;
h = t.getHours();
if (h < 12) {
ap="AM";
} else {
ap="PM";
h=h-12;
}
mn= pad(t.getMinute s());
s = pad(t.getSecond s());
if (h==0) {
h = 12
I never understood the concept of representing times between midnight
and 1:00 am as 12:xx am. Why not 00:xx am? There is far less chance of
confusion. A large percentage of the world uses a 24hr clock, so maybe
that's a better idea.
I don't know why anyone wants to put an clock in a web page unless it's
to display the time somewhere other that where the visitor is located.
Anyhow, here's another effort. I find changing the value of a text node
causes less flicker and is faster in some browsers than changing the
innerHTML.
<script type="text/javascript">
function Clock(id) {
if (typeof id == 'string') id = document.getEle mentById(id);
this.el = id;
}
Clock.prototype .month = ['Jan','Feb','Ma r','Apr','May', 'Jun',
'Jul','Aug','Se p','Oct','Nov', 'Dec'];
Clock.prototype .day = ['Sun','Mon','Tu e','Wed','Thu', 'Fri','Sat'];
Clock.prototype .addZ = function(n){ return (n<10)? '0'+n: ''+n; };
Clock.prototype .tick = function(){
var clock = this;
var t = new Date();
this.el.firstCh ild.data = clock.day[t.getDay()] + ', '
+ clock.addZ(t.ge tDate()) + ' '
+ clock.month[t.getMonth()] + ' '
+ t.getFullYear() + ', '
+ clock.addZ(t.ge tHours()) + ':'
+ clock.addZ(t.ge tMinutes()) + ':'
+ clock.addZ(t.ge tSeconds());
setTimeout(func tion(){clock.ti ck();}, (1.05 - t.getMillisecon ds()));
}
</script>
<span id="clock">&nbs p;</span>
<script type="text/javascript">
var digClock = new Clock('clock'); digClock.tick() ;
</script>

Which doesn't explain why it should be used with digital clocks based
on 24 hr time, even those that wish to use 12 hour intervals with am
and pm. 00:15 (am) is unambiguous, 12:15 am can easily be
misunderstood. 12:00 am and 12:00 pm make no sense and create
confusion.
Only a small proportion of the world's population uses 12 hour notation
with am/pm, 24 hr notation is preferable on the web.
Happy new year :-)

I think you mean 1050 not 1.05 ; I wonder how that method compares in
efficiency with (1050 - t%1000), and how one could tell.
For anywhere using ISO 8601 time format, something like
new Date().toString ().match(/[\d:]{8}/)
or new Date().toString ().match(/([\d:]{8})/)[1]
or new Date().toString ().match(/\s(\d+:[\d:]+)\s/)[1]
will give hh:mm:ss.
Since the OP wanted a clock, I see no need to provide a calendar
function.

"12:15 am" cannot easily be misunderstood by anyone who understands
what am and pm mean. "12:00 am" seems to be a problem for people who
have trouble with concept formation.
I personally perfer 24-hour time notation, but if you're going to
use am and pm, the midnight hour is correctly represented as "12". This thread has been closed and replies have been disabled. Please start a new discussion. Similar topics | |

Hello,
I want to show the result of some JavaScript on an HTML page. I've had
a look at some threads and it seems the conclusion is the following -
javascript entities are usable on the right-hand side of
attribute/value pairs (with some appropriate syntax involving curly
brackets and ampersands) and, furthermore, this only works for
attributes of "link type" html elements. If this is the case then I'm a

I am trying to find out how I can create a real time clock, which
