JavaScript - Clock Update
Hello, I'm somewhat new to JavaScript and for my website, I decided to make a clock for the website in this format:
Saturday, October 17, 2009 5:56:14 p.m. The only issue is that it won't update every second. Below is the coding: External JavaScript: Code: function dateClock() { // Coding } setTimeout("dateClock()", 1000); HTML: Code: ... <script src="date.js" type="text/javascript"> </script> </head> <body> <script type="text/javascript"> document.write("<p style='margin:-15px 0px;background-color:black;position:fixed;padding:5px;'>"+Day+", "+Month+" "+date+", "+Year+"<br />"+Hour+":"+Minute+":"+Sec+" "+Suffix+"</p>"); </script> What can I do to make it update? Thanks. Similar TutorialsHello.

I figured if there was one it would be a Javascript but does anyone know of a countdown clock that almost looks like a counter/turnstile number row? Like this sorta: I've been looking for one where I have the numbers look just like that and 'push' upward as the times (days, minutes, seconds) go on. Hopefully someone knows of a script >< Thanks alot!!! Hey all, I'm trying to sort a countdown clock for my website: http://www.cyber-technix.com/corps/index.php/ My vision of it was a transparent background, Blue text and a simple Day : Hour : Minute : Second Layout. I found a free .js countdown clock at http://www.hashemian.com/tools/javascript-countdown.htm Anyone got any better suggestions? I havn't used .js much so I may need some help implementing it if someone would be kind enough to help me out, thanks. Hello all! For the past few days I've been having trouble trying to figure out how to do something. I want to code a world population clock similar to the one here, but simpler: I want the user to be able to choose future years up to 2020 (just years, not months/days), and have the population grow by 1 percent each year. So far I have a code for the world population, but I have no clue where to begin in terms of making a list of the years with the option to increase the population. Could anyone point me in the right direction? I'd appreciate any help! Heres the code I have: <body> <script type="text/javascript"> function maind(){ startdate = new Date() now(startdate.getYear(),startdate.getMonth(),startdate.getDate(),startdate.getHours(),startdate.getM inutes(),startdate.getSeconds()) } function ChangeValue(number,pv){ numberstring ="" var j=0 var i=0 while (number > 1) { numberstring = (Math.round(number-0.5) % 10) + numberstring number= number / 10 j++ if (number > 1 && j==3) { numberstring = "," + numberstring j=0} i++ } numberstring=numberstring if (pv==1) {document.getElementById("worldpop").innerHTML=numberstring } } function now(year,month,date,hours,minutes,seconds){ startdatum = new Date(year,month,date,hours,minutes,seconds) var now = 5600000000.0 var now2 = 5690000000.0 var groeipercentage = (now2 - now) / now *100 var groeiperseconde = (now * (groeipercentage/100))/365.0/24.0/60.0/60.0 nu = new Date () schuldstartdatum = new Date (96,1,1) secondenoppagina = (nu.getTime() - startdatum.getTime())/1000 totaleschuld= (nu.getTime() - schuldstartdatum.getTime())/1000*groeiperseconde + now ChangeValue(totaleschuld,1); timerID = setTimeout("now(startdatum.getYear(),startdatum.getMonth(),startdatum.getDate(),startdatum.getHours( ),startdatum.getMinutes(),startdatum.getSeconds())",200) } window.onload=maind </script> Current world population (estimated): <span id="worldpop" style="font-weight: bold"></span>. </body> Hello, I would like help about my problem.

I followed a tutorial and then added some buttons and variables to make the clock below (see code A), but it only works off the host computer's time and I need it to work off GMT.

How would I type If I wanted to have this timer countdown to 3.00PM and then stop and display a message and reset itself by midnight and repeat itself every week day? Thanks in advance. Cheers Hi, I want to add a list of several clocks to my website, with different time zones. I know very little about Java, so please be patient with me! I found this code and thought that if I repeated it a few times - see below, and simply put a '-4' or whatever after the hours to make the different time, that would be fine. However, it only works for the first one. Please let me know what I am doing wrong.

I have created a regular digital clock (a text one), and then split this into an array. So I can manipulate the hours/ mins/ secs with [0],[1] and [2], is this the element that makes my regular text into the images I am using? There must be a correlation between the two, and that's all I can see that would do that for me. Here is the code: Code: digit_Images = ["d0.jpg","d1.jpg","d2.jpg","d3.jpg","d4.jpg","d5.jpg","d6.jpg","d7.jpg","d8.jpg","d9.jpg", "d10.jpg","d11.jpg","d12.jpg"] for (i=0;i<digit_Images.length;i++){ document.write('<img style="display: none;" src="' + digit_Images[i] + '" />'); } function clock_final(){ //make time object the_Date = new Date(); current_Time = the_Date.getHours() + ":" + the_Date.getMinutes() + ":" + the_Date.getSeconds(); var time_Parts = current_Time.split(":"); //am or pm if (time_Parts[1] <=12){ var AM_PM = digit_Images[11]; } else{ var AM_PM = digit_Images[12]; } //split down to 12 hour clock by subtracting 12 if (time_Parts[0]>=13){ time_Parts[0] = time_Parts[0] - 12 + ""; } else if(time_Parts[0] =="0"){ time_Parts[0] = "12"; } var the_Clock = new Array(); for (var i = 0; i < time_Parts.length; i++) { if (time_Parts[i].length == 1) { the_Clock[i] = '<img src="' + digit_Images[0] + '" />' + '<img src="' + digit_Images[parseInt(time_Parts[i])] + '" />'; } else if (time_Parts[i].length ==2) { the_Clock[i] = '<img src="' + digit_Images[parseInt(time_Parts[i].charAt(0))] + '" />' + '<img src="' + digit_Images[parseInt(time_Parts[i].charAt(1))] + '" />'; } } var clockHTMLInput = the_Clock[0] + '<img src="' + digit_Images[10] + '" />' + the_Clock[1] + '<img src="' + digit_Images[10] + '" />' + the_Clock[2] + '<img src="' +AM_PM + '" />'; document.getElementById('clock').innerHTML = clockHTMLInput; } Hope that's not too jumbled.

This is shown below: Actual page: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml11/DTD/ xhtml11.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" > <?php session_start(); include "../../../u0000700/wes_ica_08_09/wes_ica.inc"; ?> <head> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="wes_ica.css" /> <script type="text/javascript" src="wes_ica.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="../../../u0000700/wes_ica_08_09/wes_ica.js"></script> <title>Clock</title> </head> <body onload="globalclock()"> <form> <p><object height="200" width="200" type="image/svg+xml" data="wes_ica.svg"> </object></p> <p><input type="text" id="globalclock" /></p> </form> The code it calls in the "../../../u0000700/wes_ica_08_09/wes_ica.js" file is : function globalclock() { var clocktime = new Date(); clocktime.setMinutes(clocktime.getMinutes()+cities[city][1]); maketimedisp(clocktime); timestring=""; timestring+=cities[city][0]; timestring+=" - "; switch (dow) { case "n": timestring=timestring; break; case "s": timestring=timestring+startdayofweek.substring(0,3)+" "; break; case "f": timestring=timestring+startdayofweek+" "; break; default: timestring="Error"; } switch (cdate) { case "n": break; case "a": case "b": case "c": case "d": case "f": case "g": case "h": case "i": case "k": case "l": case "m": case "o": timestring=timestring+startday; break; case "j": case "e": case "p": if (startday>9) { timestring=timestring+startday } else{ timestring=timestring+"0"+startday } break; default: timestring="Error"; } if (startday<20) { de=dayending[startday]; } else { de=dayending[startday%10]; } switch (cdate) { case "n": case "b": case "d": case "e": case "g": case "i": case "j": case "l": case "o": case "p": break; case "a": case "c": case "f": case "h": case "k": case "m": timestring=timestring+de; break; default: timestring="Error"; } switch (cdate) { case "n": break; case "a": case "b": case "f": case "g": case "k": case "l": timestring=timestring+" "+startmonth+" " break; case "c": case "d": case "h": case "i": case "m": case "o": timestring=timestring+" "+startmonth.substring(0,3)+" " break; case "e": case "j": if (start31month>9) { cmonth=start31month } else { cmonth="0"+start31month; } timestring=timestring+"/"+cmonth+"/" break; case "p": if (start31month>9) { cmonth=start31month } else { cmonth="0"+start31month; } timestring=timestring+"/"+cmonth+" " break; default: timestring="Error"; } syear=startyear; switch (cdate) { case "n": case "k": case "l": case "m": case "o": case "p": break; case "a": case "b": case "c": case "d": case "e": timestring=timestring+syear+" "; break; case "f": case "g": case "h": case "i": case "j": yearstring=""+syear; tempyear=yearstring.match(/..$/); timestring=timestring+tempyear+" "; break; default: timestring="Error"; } switch (ctime) { case "n": break; case "a": case "b": case "c": case "d": timestring=timestring+starthour; break; case "e": case "f": timestring=timestring+start24hour; break; default: timestring="Error"; } switch (ctime) { case "n": break; case "a": case "b": case "c": case "d": case "e": case "f": if (startminute<10) { sminute=":0"+startminute; } else { sminute=":"+startminute; } timestring=timestring+sminute; break; default: timestring="Error" } switch (ctime) { case "n": case "b": case "d": case "f": break; case "a": case "c": case "e": if (startsecond<10) { ssecond=":0"+startsecond; } else { ssecond=":"+startsecond; } timestring=timestring+ssecond; break; default: timestring="Error" } switch (ctime) { case "n": case "c": case "d": case "e": case "f": break; case "a": case "b": timestring=timestring+" "+startmeridian;break; default: timestring="Error"; } document.getElementById("globalclock").value = timestring; id = setTimeout("globalclock()", 1000); } The problem that I am having is that I have to declare 3 variables in the text/javascript" src="wes_ica.js file. These variables a dow "f" or "s" cdate one from "a" to "p" except "n" ctime one from "a" to "f" These variables are then used to make the globalclock function work. I just do not know how to lay this out on the page. Things such as the header etc. Do they have to be in a function? The layout that I have so far is this: var dow = ("f","s"); var cdate = ("a","b","c","d","e","f","g","h","i","j","k","l","m","o","p"); var ctime = ("a","b","c","d","e","f"); Hello everybody. I need to make a javascript (and only javascript, no php and such) clock, that the hours and the minuets can be updated manually by an html form with 2 fields. I cant find a way to do this. thanks in advance, danbb. |
