how do I put the date on my webpage?

I want to put the time and date on my homepage and have it automatically
update itself. Could someone please suggest either how to do this in code or
preferably if I can insert a ready made web component to my page?

thanks

Insert > Date and Time

You get a pop-up box that lets you select the date and time format and
select which date and time you want -- date/time page was last edited, etc.

If you want the date and time that the visitor loads the page, you'll
probably need to look at using a JavaScript to do this. The "Insert Date &
Time" function within FP only shows the time stamp for the date/time that
you edited the page or if it was automatically updated (by using FP
Includes, for example).

There are a ton of scripts out there that will do this. Here's one that I
found with a Google search:
http://javascript.internet.com/page-details/date-time-stamp.html

It provides an example and instructions for including in your page.

Note that with any JavaScript, the time shown will usually be the time on
the visitor's computer, not your local time. There are probably scripts
that can do the latter, but you'll have to Google around for them.

Good luck!
