Hello all,

 

I have this code for date and time and it works great, but because I don't know much about javascript I cannot customize some things like font-color. (this is my only code with javascript in my web site) Tell me if you can help.

 

 

<!--
body {
   margin-left: 0px;
   margin-top: 0px;
   background-color: #FF0000;
   margin-right: 0px;
   margin-bottom: 200px;
   background-image: url();
}
.style1 { font-size: 18px }
.style2 {
   font-size: 18px;
   color: #FF0000;
}
.style3 {
font-color: #000000;
}
-->
</style>
<script type="text/javascript">

var weekdaystxt=["Sun", "Mon", "Tue", "Wed", "Thu", "Fri", "Sat"]

function showLocalTime(container, servermode, offsetMinutes, displayversion){
if (!document.getElementById || !document.getElementById(container)) return
this.container=document.getElementById(container)
this.displayversion=displayversion
var servertimestring=(servermode=="server-php")? '<? print date ("D dS F Y H:i:s", time())?>' : (servermode=="server-ssi")? '<!--#config timefmt=" %a, %d %B %Y %H:%M:%S"--><!--#echo var="DATE_LOCAL" -->' : '<%= Now() %>'
this.localtime=this.serverdate=new Date(servertimestring)
this.localtime.setTime(this.serverdate.getTime()+offsetMinutes*60*1000) //add user offset to server time
this.updateTime()
this.updateContainer()
}

showLocalTime.prototype.updateTime=function(){
var thisobj=this
this.localtime.setSeconds(this.localtime.getSeconds()+1)
setTimeout(function(){thisobj.updateTime()}, 1000) //update time every second
}

showLocalTime.prototype.updateContainer=function(){
var thisobj=this
if (this.displayversion=="long")
this.container.innerHTML=this.localtime.toLocaleString()
else{
var hour=this.localtime.getHours()
var minutes=this.localtime.getMinutes()
var seconds=this.localtime.getSeconds()
var dayofweek=weekdaystxt[this.localtime.getDay()]
this.container.innerHTML=formatField(hour, 1)+":"+formatField(minutes)+":"+formatField(seconds)+" "+"("+dayofweek+")"
}
setTimeout(function(){thisobj.updateContainer()}, 1000) //update container every second
}

function formatField(num, isHour){
if (typeof isHour!="undefined"){ //if this is the hour field
var hour=(num>24)? num-24 : num
return (hour==0)? 24 : hour
}
return (num<=9)? "0"+num : num//if this is minute or sec field
}

</script>
</head>

<body>
    <table width="100%" border="0" align="center">
      <tr>
      <th scope="col" width="230</th><div class="style3"><span id="timebox"></span></div>
<script type="text/javascript">
new showLocalTime("timebox", "server-php", 420, "long")
</script><div></div>
     </tr>
     </table>
     </body>
</html>

 

The problems...

 

1. How do I customize the time and date font color, style & size? (what ever I do is not working! most likely cause I don't know what I am doing with javascript  ;D )

 

2. In the column where time and date is displayed I want to be displayed in 2 lines instead of one... ex

 

1/2/2009

00:00:00

 

not 1/2/2009 00:00:00

 

3. I want to see a 24h time and not 12h without showing AM or PM.

 

ex 00:00:00 not 1:9:36 PM

 

Thank you

Good mornig,

 

Font problem I fixed it... Now I am trying to find out why I cannot change the date format.

 

What ever I do I always get the same format... Monday, 13 June, 2009 00:00:00 (in red is where I am trying to format my date)

 

Plus I want to move the time to the next line. Any help? (I re-enter the javascript code only)

 

<script type="text/javascript">

var weekdaystxt=["Sun", "Mon", "Tue", "Wed", "Thu", "Fri", "Sat"]

function showLocalTime(container, servermode, offsetMinutes, displayversion){
if (!document.getElementById || !document.getElementById(container)) return
this.container=document.getElementById(container)
this.displayversion=displayversion
var servertimestring=(servermode=="server-php")? '<? print date ("D dS F Y H:i:s", time())?>' : (servermode=="server-ssi")? '<!--#config timefmt=" %a, %d %B %Y %H:%M:%S"--><!--#echo var="DATE_LOCAL" -->' : '<%= Now() %>'
this.localtime=this.serverdate=new Date(servertimestring)
this.localtime.setTime(this.serverdate.getTime()+offsetMinutes*60*1000) //add user offset to server time
this.updateTime()
this.updateContainer()
}

showLocalTime.prototype.updateTime=function(){
var thisobj=this
this.localtime.setSeconds(this.localtime.getSeconds()+1)
setTimeout(function(){thisobj.updateTime()}, 1000) //update time every second
}

showLocalTime.prototype.updateContainer=function(){
var thisobj=this
if (this.displayversion=="long")
this.container.innerHTML=this.localtime.toLocaleString()
else{
var hour=this.localtime.getHours()
var minutes=this.localtime.getMinutes()
var seconds=this.localtime.getSeconds()
var dayofweek=weekdaystxt[this.localtime.getDay()]
this.container.innerHTML=formatField(hour, 1)+":"+formatField(minutes)+":"+formatField(seconds)+" "+"("+dayofweek+")"
}
setTimeout(function(){thisobj.updateContainer()}, 1000) //update container every second
}

function formatField(num, isHour){
if (typeof isHour!="undefined"){ //if this is the hour field
var hour=(num>24)? num-24 : num
return (hour==0)? 24 : hour
}
return (num<=9)? "0"+num : num//if this is minute or sec field
}

</script>

When setting parameter 'long' (to show date and time)

Change

 

if (this.displayversion=="long")

this.container.innerHTML=this.localtime.toLocaleString()

with the time format you like ex

 

if (this.displayversion=="long")

this.container.innerHTML='<? print date('D, F jS Y')?>' (i needed only the date at first line)

 

when setting parameter 'short' (to show only time), play with this line to modify the time... Change

 

this.container.innerHTML=formatField(hour, 1)+":"+formatField(minutes)+":"+formatField(seconds)+" "+"("+dayofweek+")"

 

with the time format you like ex

 

this.container.innerHTML=formatField(hour, 1)+":"+formatField(minutes)+":"+formatField(seconds)+" (GMT +2)" (I didn't like am/pm but liked the GMT+2)
