Display Time

[Ragol1]

I Use this to grab a time to add to a DB but I just want the time from the server


<script type=&quot;text/javascript&quot;>
function addDate(){
var now = new Date();
document.update.update_date.value = now;
document.update.submit();
}
</script>

It currently displays time like these
Tue Aug 27 13:09:49 PDT 2002
Tue Aug 27 23:15:47 UTC+0100 2002

All i want is for it to display the time the event happend at the server time

Javascript runs client side. That means the user's web browser does all the processing of the javascript after it has been downloaded from the server. Javascript cannot communicate with the server, and therefor cannot get the time from the server. If you want to display the current server time, you need to use a server side scripting language such as ASP or JSP. Find out what your web server software supports, and then it should be a straight forward process.
