Hello all,
I'm using a javascript "daily counter" (the code for which is at the bottom) and I'm trying to make it into a link. However, I want that link to change every day depending on what the counter reads. (e.g. I want it to link to "/tagged/DAY-10/" with the DAY-10 being the thing that changes each day and the tagged being constant.)
Now, my basic understanding of HTML lets me know that if I try to code it in as "/tagged/'counter'" or something of that nature which is named in the javascript, it simply won't work.
So, my question is, is there any way I make it into a link that changes retroactively?
Thanks so much.
