I am trying to figure out a way that when a page loads it pulls the date and time into a text box.

Any ideas....

Thanks

Super simplified version:


<head>

function plugTime(){

t = new Date()

//format how you like

document.form1.timeField.value = t
}


</head>



<body onload = "plugTime()">
...
<form name = 'form1'>
<input type="text" name = "timeField" value ="">
</form>
...
</script>
