Jeremy Simmons: The Blog

As much as I love Google, I can't help fnd this amusing. One might want to avoid this as a file-size. It's bad for karma.

I realized I haven't blogged in 5 months. How pathetic is that.

Here's some quick coding goodness. This will insert the current date formatted per the user's Locale into the div. One of them is IE specific, the other is a more standards-happy way of doing it. As always, code should be valid XHTML!

<div id="CurrentDate"></div>
<hr />
<div id="CurrentDate2"></div>

<script type="text/vbscript" language="vbscript">
<!--
<![CDATA[
    Document.all("CurrentDate").innerText = FormatDateTime(Now(),1)
]]>
//-->
</script>

<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript">
<!--
<![CDATA[
    var now = new Date();
    now.getDate();
    document.getElementById("CurrentDate2").innerText = now.toLocaleDateString();

]]>
//-->
</script>
