Re: Time script needed

if your server will let you use PHP you can use this code:

<?php
print (date (g:i a));
?>

that'll give you the time in this format : "4:35 pm" but of course there
are many other format options...
name your page "whatever.php" (your html will still work just fine) and when
it loads into the client's browser the php will add the current server time
into the html... I'm not explaining this well.  :-)  you can go to
www.php.net and read the time and date function section of the online
manual.   hmm, but this won't update in real time; only if you hit reload...
