Day month year and Filename

[Soquili]

John try the following code.

 
<script type="text/javascript"><!--
var now = new Date();
var Weekday = new Array("SUN","MON","TUE","WED","THU","FRI","SAT");
var Month = new Array("JAN","FEB","MAR","APR","MAY","JUN ","JUL","AUG","SEP","OCT","NOV","DEC");
document.write(Weekday[now.getDay()]+", "+Month[now.getMonth()]+" "+now.getDate()+", "+now.getFullYear());
//--></script>

Javascript is case sensitive. This means that the variable curDate and CurDate are different variables.

Here is a xar file with the code in a placeholder.

Hi,
try this:

<script type="text/javascript"><!--
var curDate = new Date();
var CurYear = curDate.getFullYear();
CurYear = CurYear.toString().slice(2);
var Weekday = new Array("SUN","MON","TUE","WED","THU","FRI","SAT");
var Month = new Array("JAN","FEB","MAR","APR","MAY","JUN","JUL","A UG","SEP","OCT","NOV","DEC");
document.write(curDate.getDate()+ " " +Month[curDate.getMonth()]+ " " + CurYear);
//--></script>

Thanks, Bill and Sebastion.

Sebastion, you nailed it.

It looks like there can be a variety of ways of setting variables and formatting syntax in Javascript. I don't know any programming (just a tiny bit), so I was looking at Steve's posting trying to identify repeatable patterns of syntax and then pluging in additional lines of code.

I compiled previous code postings into the attached file in case someone else would like to use it.

If there are errors in it or "nonstandard" formating used, let me know.
