Java Script question on posting the date and adjusting the font

M

Mark M S

I am not a programmer so any direction is appreciated. I found some code to
post the current date on my Web page I will add it at the end here.

I pasted it into a table. I would prefer to adjust the size of the font
smaller and I haven't a clue how. This is pasted into the body and am using
Frontpage 2003

Have you tried putting a <font> tag in front of the <center> tag, with the
sizes defined as you want? If that doesn't work, you might have to rework it
so that it actually calls the function from the header, and then put the font
tag around the call to it in the body.

Hi Mark,
That script is just going to spit out the date, you can add whatever tags
you like around it to format it. For example
<span style="font-size: 10px;">
....put your script here
</span>

Will make the text 10px - you can also change fonts' colours etc
