Does anyone have (or if people are bored can anyone write :-) ) a clock
script? I had one but I it's fragged, I can't get it to work and it's
holding up the roll-out of my site.
In case you haven't guessed I'm trying to get the "It's hh:mm:ss do you
know where your meat body is?" (and I'm trying to get it in real time :D )

Although I'm not entirely sure it'll work (I didn't test it at all, I just
looked at the JavaScript reference), try this:

<script>
<!--
now = new Date()
document.write(now.getHours() + ":" + now.getMinutes() + ":" +
now.getSeconds())
// -->
</script>

Also stick the following tag into the HEAD of the document, to identify all
scripts on the page as JavaScript:

<meta http-equiv="Content-Script-Type"
content="text/javascript">

Cheers Graht, Gurth.

The only thing is, when I tested the script I came up with, it told the
wrong time :) The hours seemed to be GMT, rather than local time, but I
couldn't find a way to correct it (you could use getUTCHour() instead of
getHour(), but that only made an hour's difference rather than the 2 it
should have been).
