Time Script + getHours + getMinutes

@worked4usJul 14.2008

Hey there- I have a very simple time script that declares “AM/PM” and “OPEN/CLOSED” depending on the time.

Concerning the “OPEN/CLOSE”, I’m interested in an “OPEN” range between 9:30AM and 4:00PM, and all other times “CLOSED”. I’ve successfully written the script to declare “CLOSED” on the weekends, but need help with the time range. Any help is appreciated! Thanks!

~~[B]~~time.js:[/B]

[CODE] function startclock(){ var thetime=new Date(); var dayNames = new Array(“Sunday”,”Monday”,”Tuesday”,”Wednesday”,”Thursday”,”Friday”,”Saturday”); var nhours=thetime.getHours(); var nmins=thetime.getMinutes(); var nsecn=thetime.getSeconds(); var OorC=” “; var AorP=” “;

//Currently “OPEN” between 9AM-12AM : NEED range from 9:30AM-4:00PM if (nhours>=9) OorC=”Open”; else OorC=”Closed”;

//closed sat and sun if (dayNames[thetime.getDay()] == “Sunday”) OorC=”Closed on Sunday”; else if (dayNames[thetime.getDay()] == “Saturday”) OorC=”Closed on Saturday”; else OorC=”Open”;

if(nhours>=12) AorP=”PM”; else AorP=”AM”;

if (nhours>=13) nhours-=12;

if (nhours==0) nhours=12;

if (nsecn<10) nsecn=”0″+nsecn;

if (nmins<10) nmins=”0″+nmins;

document.clockform.clockspot.value=” “+nhours+”:”+nmins+”:”+nsecn+” “+AorP+” | “+OorC; setTimeout(‘startclock()’,1000); } [/CODE]

function startclock(){
 var thetime=new Date();
 var dayNames = new Array("Sunday","Monday","Tuesday","Wednesday","Thursday","Friday","Saturday");
 var nhours=thetime.getHours();
 var nmins=thetime.getMinutes();
 var nsecn=thetime.getSeconds();
 var OorC=" ";
 var AorP=" ";
 if (nhours&gt;=9 &amp;&amp; nhours&lt;=16) { 
 if (nhours == 9 &amp;&amp; nmins &lt; 30) {
 OorC = "Closed";
 }
 else {
 OorC="Open";
 }
 }
 else {
 OorC="Closed";
 }
 //closed sat and sun
 if (dayNames[thetime.getDay()] == "Sunday") {
 OorC="Closed on Sunday";
 }
 else if (dayNames[thetime.getDay()] == "Saturday") {
 OorC="Closed on Saturday";
 }
 if(nhours&gt;=12) {
 AorP="PM";
 }
 else {
 AorP="AM";
 }
 
 if (nhours&gt;=13) {
 nhours-=12;
 }
 
 if (nhours==0) {
 nhours=12;
 }
 
 if (nsecn&lt;10) {
 nsecn="0"+nsecn;
 }
 
 if (nmins&lt;10) {
 nmins="0"+nmins;
 }
 
 document.clockform.clockspot.value=" "+nhours+":"+nmins+":"+nsecn+" "+AorP+" | "+OorC;
 setTimeout('startclock()',1000);
 }

I added all the curly braces ({ and }) because it is easier to read, easier to alter and easier to debug. Also you had a slight problem in the original, you were setting open if it wasn't Saturday or Sunday, and that would always override the time setting, regardless of what time it was.

As well as that, you don't actually need the days array, but I left it in just in case you ever want to put the day into the textbox.

@worked4usauthorJul 14.2008 — #Thanks! All i had to tweak was the 16 to 15 for it to display "Closed" at 4PM. Thank you for the super quick response! Oh and I see about the nested conditional, thanks for correcting that. I knew something was wrong there... I'm just new to js, i mostly code in as. Again thank you!

One more question, if you have time to help. I needed to display EST anywhere on the planet. So I found this awesome and robust time script creator: maxxblade

Anyway, it's working as should, but I really would like to display the "OPEN/CLOSED" when appropriate, "OPEN" 9AM-4:30PM M-F, "CLOSED" all else. Just like the script above dictates.

Any additional help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
