Display content based on time

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:

Is it possible to use javascript to display content at a certain time each week? For instance if it’s 12:00 PM – 2:00 PM on Monday then a certain string of text appears, otherwise an alternative message appears.

Or would this require php?

@Khalid_AliAug 30.2005 — this may be done by JavaScript.

Here is how

when the page loads,

check for current time and date.(Date object)

if its the time you are looking for then display a string, may be by making use of

message = "set new message";

if its no t

message = "alternate message";

document.getElementById("messageDisplayer").innerHTML=message

Hope this helps yuo..:-)

Success!
