Hey I would to create a live clock to put it on my website. So I wrote a simple php with JavaScript code for that, here is it:
<?php
Function d1() {
$time1 = Time();
$date1 = date("h:i:s A",$time1);
echo $date1;
}
?>
<script type="text/javascript">
window.onload = startInterval;
function startInterval() {
setInterval("startTime();",1000);
}
function startTime() {
document.getElementById('qwe').innerHTML = '<?php d1();?>';
}
</script>
<div id="qwe">test</div>
When run this code the output like "2:40:17 PM", the div refreshed every second but the problem is the time never changed.

Have you tried removing the quotes around
startTimein yoursetIntervalfunction? The quotes and the()are unnecessary as,setInterval(startTime,1000);would suffice. – Anthony Forloney Commented Jan 28, 2013 at 13:38 - 1 Switched your references from "java" to "javascript", they aren't the same thing :) – jbabey Commented Jan 28, 2013 at 13:39
- PHP is a server side language. You would need to make a call to the server to do your function each time. Your code is piled to have the same time displayed everytime. righ click -> view source – UnholyRanger Commented Jan 28, 2013 at 13:39

Reset to default 5Get the initial time you want to start your clock with from PHP:
<script>
var now = new Date(<?php echo time() * 1000 ?>);
function startInterval(){
setInterval('updateTime();', 1000);
}
startInterval();//start it right away
function updateTime(){
var nowMS = now.getTime();
nowMS += 1000;
now.setTime(nowMS);
var clock = document.getElementById('qwe');
if(clock){
clock.innerHTML = now.toTimeString();//adjust to suit
}
}
</script>
For formatting the date there's a zillion options (MDN Date API: https://developer.mozilla/en-US/docs/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Date)
<script type="text/javascript">
function timedMsg()
{
var t=setInterval("change_time();",1000);
}
function change_time()
{
var d = new Date();
var curr_hour = d.getHours();
var curr_min = d.getMinutes();
var curr_sec = d.getSeconds();
if(curr_hour > 12)
curr_hour = curr_hour - 12;
document.getElementById('Hour').innerHTML =curr_hour+':';
document.getElementById('Minut').innerHTML=curr_min+':';
document.getElementById('Second').innerHTML=curr_sec;
}
timedMsg();
</script>
<table>
<tr>
<td>Current time is :</td>
<td id="Hour" style="color:green;font-size:large;"></td>
<td id="Minut" style="color:green;font-size:x-large;"></td>
<td id="Second" style="color:red;font-size:xx-large;"></td>
<tr>
</table>
use this way to display time........ enjoy the above script
You can use ajax to refresh the time:
Example:
<?php
if(@$_GET["action"]=="getTime"){
$time1 = Time();
$date1 = date("h:i:s A",$time1);
echo $date1; // time output for ajax request
die();
}
?>
<div id="qwe">test</div>
<script type="text/javascript">
window.onload = startInterval;
function startInterval() {
setInterval("startTime();",1000);
}
function startTime() {
AX = new ajaxObject("?action=getTime", showTime)
AX.update(); // start Ajax Request
}
// CallBack
function showTime( data ){
document.getElementById('qwe').innerHTML = data;
}
</script>
<script type="text/javascript">
// Ajax Object - Constructor
function ajaxObject(url, callbackFunction) {
var that=this;
this.updating = false;
this.abort = function() {
if (that.updating) {
that.updating=false;
that.AJAX.abort();
that.AJAX=null;
}
};
this.update =
function(passData,postMethod) {
if (that.updating) { return false; }
that.AJAX = null;
if (window.XMLHttpRequest) {
that.AJAX=new XMLHttpRequest();
}else{
that.AJAX=new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");
}
if (that.AJAX==null) {
return false;
}else{
that.AJAX.onreadystatechange = function() {
if (that.AJAX.readyState==4) {
that.updating=false;
that.callback( that.AJAX.responseText, that.AJAX.status, that.AJAX.responseXML, that.AJAX.getAllResponseHeaders() );
that.AJAX=null;
}
};
that.updating = new Date();
if (/post/i.test(postMethod)) {
var uri=urlCall+(/\?/i.test(urlCall)?'&':'?')+'timestamp='+that.updating.getTime();
that.AJAX.open("POST", uri, true);
that.AJAX.setRequestHeader("Content-type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded");
that.AJAX.setRequestHeader("Content-Length", passData.length);
that.AJAX.send(passData);
}else{
var uri=urlCall+(/\?/i.test(urlCall)?'&':'?')+passData+'×tamp='+(that.updating.getTime());
that.AJAX.open("GET", uri, true);
that.AJAX.send(null);
}
return true;
}
};
var urlCall = url;
this.callback = callbackFunction || function (){};
