What code do i need to use so that the date automatically appears on my web site and changes automatically?

Copy and paste the following script into the body of your webpage. You may need to edit this script, or all you will get is a blank page with today's date.

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
var months=new Array(13);
months[1]="January";
months[2]="February";
months[3]="March";
months[4]="April";
months[5]="May";
months[6]="June";
months[7]="July";
months[8]="August";
months[9]="September";
months[10]="October";
months[11]="November";
months[12]="December";
var time=new Date();
var lmonth=months[time.getMonth() + 1];
var date=time.getDate();
var year=time.getYear();
if (year<100) year="19" + time.getYear();
else year=time.getYear();
document.write("<center>" + lmonth + " ");
document.write(date + ", " + year + "</center>");
</SCRIPT>

Hello Olson2189,
that code doesn't update the clock automatically

The code for that was posted recently here: http://www.htmlforums.com/showthread...threadid=40556

Cheryl - You could maybe think of a little better subjects for your threads (link); something that actually describes the thread instead of simply "Newbie", "Help" and "code needed" (you have used all of those three subjects).

Yea, I wasn't exactly sure what she wanted, so I gave her a script that may be of some assistance.

Or simply:

Code:

<script type="text/javascript">
document.write(new Date())
</script>
