Get server-time in ASP and pass on to Javascript

Hi.

I have a problem. I'm kind of new to all this. I have a coundownscript in Javascript, but i want it to calculate the time from the server-side (in ASP) and not the client-side.

How do i do that? Here is a few lines of the code:



if (mode == null) mode = 0;
if (name == null) name = '0';
var clock = document.getElementById(elementString);
var eventdate = new Date(dateString); // in format "January 1, 2005 00:00:00 GMT"
now = new Date();
nowtime = this.serverdate.getTime(); // now in milliseconds
eventtime = eventdate.getTime(); // event in milliseconds

var eventhour = eventdate.getHours();
var eventminute = eventdate.getMinutes();
var eventsecond = eventdate.getSeconds();
var eventmonth = eventdate.getMonth()+1;
var eventday = eventdate.getDate();
var eventyear = eventdate.getFullYear();

timeleft = Math.round((eventtime-nowtime) / 1000); // timeleft in seconds

This code (in ASP) displays the server-time, like this:

<%

=MonthName(month(date)) & " " & Day(Date) & " " & Year(Date) & " " & Hour(Time)& ":" & Minute(Time) & ":" & Second(Time)

%>



RESULT: October 10 2006 15:00:00
