Umm, why would you need a function to create an array? Can't you just
create the array directly, like so? var months = new Array('January','February','March','April','May','June','July','August', 'September','October','November','December'); --or-- var months = ['January','February','March','April','May','June','July','August', 'September','October','November','December']; As for what's wrong with it, I suspect it's your else-if statements. Instead of looking like this: if (dd == 1 || dd == 21 || dd == 31) { day = dd + "st"; } else { if (dd == 2 || dd == 22) { day = dd + "nd"; } It should look like this: if (dd == 1 || dd == 21 || dd == 31) { day = dd + "st"; } else if (dd == 2 || dd == 22) { day = dd + "nd"; } Hope that helped! :) [View Quote] > Can someone tell me what's wrong with this script? > > <script language="JavaScript"> > //This Script creates variables for the date and time that is displayed in > the upper right hand corner > function makeArray() { > for (i = 0; i<makeArray.arguments.length; i++) > this[i + 1] = makeArray.arguments[i]; > } > > var months = new > makeArray('January','February','March','April','May','June','July','August', > 'September','October','November','December'); > var date = new Date(); > var dd = date.getDate(); > if (dd == 1 || dd == 21 || dd == 31) { > day = dd + "st"; > } else { > if (dd == 2 || dd == 22) { > day = dd + "nd"; > } else { > if (dd == 3 || dd == 23) { > day = dd + "rd"; > } else { > day = dd + "th"; > } > var month = date.getMonth() + 1; > var yy = date.getYear(); > var year = (yy < 1000) ? yy + 1900 : yy; > var hh = date.getHours(); > var hour = (hh > 12) ? hh - 12 : hh; > var mm = date.getMinutes(); > if (mm < 10) { > minute1 = "0" + mm; > } > minute1 = "" + minute1 > if (hh < 12) { > minute = minute1 + " AM" > } else { > minute = minute1 + " PM" > } > </script> > > Thanks, > -Dion > > > -- Goober King Would help if he knew what it was being used for... robrod at prism.net JavascriptAug 22, 2002, 6:14pm

*smacks NCC* Bad NCC, BAD! Those verdammt
document.all.date/time.innerHTML statements only work in IE! If you're going to use those, then you need to check the user's browser and use an NS alternative snippit of code. Either that, or don't use them in the first place. If Dion could tell me where he got his code, I'd be able to explain what went wrong and it won't have to come to that.

Though I agree with the sentiment, I can't guarantee my pages will work
in *ALL* browsers, just NS and IE. I can only test my pages on browsers I actually have, and I'm not about to load up my comp with a ton of browsers just to test a few pages. :P [View Quote] > "Give him cross-browser compatibility, or give him death!" > > You might find this of interest, and might even want to promote the > campaign by displaying one of its images on your site(s). > > http://www.anybrowser.org/campaign/ > > [View Quote] -- Goober King Smacking the IEgnorant masses since 1996. robrod at prism.net All ActiveWorlds Hackers Finally Gone!Aug 23, 2002, 9:51am

Yeesh, it's like reading one of JFK2's posts...
A word to the wise: The beauty of the newsgroups is you can think things through before you type them. You can easily sit back and think about what you're going to type, and then type it once you've gotten it all laid out. And even if it doesn't look right after you've typed it all out, you can still go back and edit it before clicking that Send button. Utilizing this philosophy would solve so many problems in here... So, in other words, calm down, take a deep breath (and maybe a couple pills), and CHILL. And, btw, I make "rude" comments to everyone, not just you. It's called being "cynical". Don't feel like you're being singled out or anything. :P [View Quote] > *sigh* stereo-types... looky lookers... > <snips random rambling> -- Goober King Think first, type later... robrod at prism.net Re: Anime (was Re: AWEC's Stand Up Comedy Night)Aug 23, 2002, 10:36pm
I'd agree with the first picture as "sexy", but judging by the others, I
can only assume that any depiction of a female being constitutes "sex symbol" in Eep's mind.

If by "history", you're referring to the history of petitions and the
fact that they do squat, then I would say you can't "screw history", no matter how much you want to. :P Still, I seem to remember hearing somewhere that they were going to get rid of the whole special commands BS and open up everything. (Though, that could also be more wishful thinking) I was talking to Brant about it a little while ago, and he claims that AWTeen has *never* had a move/rotate related vandalism problem EVER. And you'd think that would be the *first* place where such trouble would arise!

The point is, the fact that it was never reported means that it's not a
problem. Like you said, if all it is was tourist stuff, that can be easily deleted. Now, if a ton of citizens were doing it, don't you think it would be reported after a while? :P And why would Brant lie about such a thing? The discussion I referred to occurred after he had stepped down from being Caretaker, and all I asked him was "Have you ever had a problem with move/rotate in AWTeen?" It never came up as to why I asked that question, so he had no reason to lie. [View Quote] > > Well, could it be Brant's lying?

Well then, tell that to Netscape, since it puts the sig at the bottom of
the post.

It also provides a really good record of the layout and structure of the
building when you just can't seem to find/make/steal those spiffy blueprints... Was this guy recording the same spot for 10 minutes, or did it look like he was actually casing the building? If the former, I wouldn't worry about it too much. He might have been following a departing plane or something...

Umm, they were never on the NYSE. Their stock got pulled off of NASDAQ
after they didn't show up to an appeal hearing to keep the stock listed. This was due, in part, to Rick and JP resigning as CEO and CFO of AWCorp and buying out the subsidiary, AW Inc.

Features that are easily removed/disabled, btw. Nothing against Mozilla,
but having the Netscape name attached to it at least gives it the appearance that it's a tried and tested browser (even if it *is* infected with AOL) rather than a relatively untested open-source browser.
