Getting a full date to print

[jeffery1493]

Hi All,

I have been trying code snippets all over the web, trying to print the current date on my web page in this format:

Thursday, January 12th, 2007


All of them use JavaScript, all use document.write, and none of them work.  They just simply display a blank page.  Most of the code snippets say simpy "Paste this in your document"

Does anyone know what is going on?   

Thanks,

JEFFERY1493

I take it you want to do it in PHP as this is a PHP help forum
try this
[code]
<?php
$now = strtotime("now");
$today = date("l, F jS, Y", $now);
echo $today; // Wednesday, January 17th, 2007
?>
[/code]

YES, thanks you got me in the right direction.
Well, it's a #?$ of alot easier to do it in PHP. :P   
My app is in PHP, this is just one of a few HTML front pages. 

I imagine I'll have to convert the whole page over, probably would be easier to do that, then get a simple date to work in HTML underneath.

At least, when I'm driving.
