this is the client side forum. if you want to do something involving the server, you need to ask in the server side forum.

todaysDate=now() 

%>   

<%

Response.write todaysDate 

Response.write("<br>")

%>   



<%

Response.write FormatDateTime(todaysDate,0) 

Response.write("<br>")

%>   



<%

Response.write FormatDateTime(todaysDate,1) 

Response.write("<br>")

Should give you some good tutorials on using javascript to manipulate time.

All times are GMT +1. The time now is 07:09 PM.
