Font change in a Script

Don Schmidt

Hi gang,

'Been doing a little tweaking with my website; added a Day and Date to the
Home page.

I'd like to change the font from what looks like Times New Roman to Verdana;
How?

Here is the Script:

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="Javascript"><!--

// ***********************************************

// Get today's current date.
var now = new Date();

// Array list of days.
var days = new
Array('Sunday','Monday','Tuesday','Wednesday','Thursday','Friday','Saturday');

// Array list of months.
var months = new
Array('January','February','March','April','May','June','July','August','September','October','November','December');

// Calculate the number of the current day in the week.
var date = ((now.getDate()<10) ? "0" : "")+ now.getDate();

// Calculate four digit year.
function fourdigits(number) {
return (number < 1000) ? number + 1900 : number;
}

// Join it all together
today = days[now.getDay()] + ", " +
months[now.getMonth()] + " " +
date + ", " +
(fourdigits(now.getYear())) ;

// Print out the data.
document.write("Today is " +today+ ".");

//--></SCRIPT>

Many thanks,

Change the line:

document.write("Today is " +today+ ".");

TO READ:

document.write("<b><font size= 4 face= verdana> Today is " +today+ ".");

Monkey around with the font name (face) and the size

Have you tried an ACTIVE clock that shows actual time and updates each
second?

ADD: onLoad="show_clock()" after <body tag

<body onLoad="show_clock()" ......

Html fragment in publisher to where you want the time to show

<script language="javascript" src="liveclock.js">

Many thanks Spike.

This is the line I ended up with:

document.write("<font size= 2 face= verdana> Today is " +today+ ".");

'Eliminated the Bold; got a number 10 font with the 2



I'll look into the clock script. I have a pocket watch icon on my test site

Spike,

I'm trying to add the time and date script but it's not working.

I've uploaded liveclock.js to reside next to the html files.
Added the Code fragment to the webpage.

And put the Load instruction in, i.e.,

Original = <body bgcolor="#f9ffd7" link="#000080" vlink="#660099"
text="#000000" topmargin=0 leftmargin=0>
New = <onLoad="show_clock()" body bgcolor="#f9ffd7" link="#000080"
vlink="#660099" text="#000000" topmargin=0 leftmargin=0>

But the time and date aren't showing up on the webpage.

Puzzling. Do you see any problems?

Oops!

You put in

New = <onLoad="show_clock()" body bgcolor="#f9ffd7" link="#000080"
vlink="#660099" text="#000000" topmargin=0 leftmargin=0>

Should be

In the meantime I found a script that gives date and time totally built in
the script.

www.vanusa.org shows on the home page.

It gets the date and time from the computer displaying the webpage.

The approximate time looks good on your test site (probably drives folks
nuts with approximate time)

I am wondering if pub 2000 does not like the script
All three work OK using 2007

The first one shows how long you are on the web site (requires countdown.js)

The second one tells you what week it is ( 1 thru 52 )

It's not an exact science

Yes I see that
Thanks for posting that

Trying to get that resolved (it worked for a while)
It is a free service and they do not allow redirects or reference links out
of their system. WELL!! The scripts had links in the comments section
referencing the script author. There are no visible or invisible links on
the web page to click on. I assume that geocities web crawler saw those and
locked it out. I put spaces in the links to see if that will do the trick
and I am waiting for a reply from them. Oh well what can you expect for a
FREE service. Geocities comes with yahoo e-mail account. This has nothing
to do directly with Publisher 2000 .2 ,3 ,7 but it may be of interest to
the readers. If I get it resolved I will post back.

It's back up and hopefully they will leave it up. Look Quick :) One of
the scripts contained the web address of the author so I modified it to read

www dot mydomain dot com from www.mydomain.com

I looked at your script and modified it for my test page
I put a continues clock on the page that you might look at

If geocities locks me out again I have an alternate plan
I will set up a sub domain on my own space with a unique domain name
..info names are going for 99 cents a month on my provider

Yes I see that
Thanks for posting that

Trying to get that resolved (it worked for a while)
It is a free service and they do not allow redirects or reference links
out of their system. WELL!! The scripts had links in the comments
section referencing the script author. There are no visible or invisible
links on the web page to click on. I assume that geocities web crawler
saw those and locked it out. I put spaces in the links to see if that
will do the trick and I am waiting for a reply from them. Oh well what
can you expect for a FREE service. Geocities comes with yahoo e-mail
account. This has nothing to do directly with Publisher 2000 .2 ,3 ,7
but it may be of interest to the readers. If I get it resolved I will
post back.

Found you on this try!

The one that reads "Good morning! It was Saturday October 25, 2008 at 7:41
AM. When you logged on!" is what would fill the bill if the clock would
update the hours, minutes and seconds. (fussy engineers need accuracy! <G>)

I'd change it to read,

"Buon giorno! È Sabato, Ottobre 25, 2008 at 7:41 AM. La sua visita è
benvenuta!"

"Good day! It is Saturday, October 25, 2008 a 7:41 AM. Your visit is
welcome."

I believe that the only way to have the clock update is to make the script
active with a body tag

Here is one that I modified:

You must add onLoad="showclock()" in <body ...> each time you
update the site, Yes it's a pain but then !!!

From the remarks you can see where I got the basic idea

For your use
Modify the two lines below between the " "
before="Hey Dude: it's"
after=" So there !"
to:
before="Buon giorno! È Sabato, "
after"="La sua visita è benvenuta!"

Edit the line containing:
font color='000999' face='verdana' size='4'
To the color, fone and size you want

I believe that the only way to have the clock update is to make the script
active with a body tag

Here is one that I modified:

You must add onLoad="showclock()" in <body ...> each time
you update the site, Yes it's a pain but then !!!

From the remarks you can see where I got the basic idea

For your use
Modify the two lines below between the " "
before="Hey Dude: it's"
after=" So there !"
to:
before="Buon giorno! È Sabato, "
after"="La sua visita è benvenuta!"

Edit the line containing:
font color='000999' face='verdana' size='4'
To the color, fone and size you want

As for your comment "fussy engineers need accuracy!, I retired after 41
years in the electronics field relating to air traffic control. Tell me
about it :) !

Having a clock that says the time is about Two Thirty in the afternoon is
a escape route TO sanity. :)
I will add this script to my page after I modify the www.mydomain.com so
I don't get locked out again

WOW

I was incorrect (never to old to learn) :)
You have it running without a body tag
I put in text before and after and works great
Thanks

BTW

This forum can cause a problem now and then
The width of text allowed will put a line break in the middle of a line and
render some scripts useless
as in the one you posted

document.write('<font size= 2 face= verdana><layer
and
id="clock"></layer><br>');

MUST be on one line

I think maybe one of the ones I posted to you had the same thing happen and
could be why they did not work for you
