I have a banner that displays on the site every Wednesday at 2:00
p.m.. However, I am afraid that when daylight savings time ends in
October I am going to have to rewrite my code.
It's a matter of chaning the value of a single variable, but what
happens when I move on and another developer overseas the project?
He/she won't know why that banner isn't displaying at the correct
time.
Thanks,
Aaron
P.S. Our remote server is in Ireland and the time the banner is
supposed to display is on Wednesday from 2:00 to 3:00 p.m. PT & PST.
Here is the current code:
<cfset remoteTime = dateformat(now(), "dddd, HH") />
<cfset broadcastTime = "Wednesday, 10" />
<cfset compareTimes = Compare(remoteTime, broadcastTime) />
<cfif compareTimes EQ 0>
<a href="javascript:funOpenLive();" title="World News and the
Bible"><img src="<cfoutput>#request.root#</cfoutput>images/adverts/WNB_LIVE.gif"
width="190" height="66" alt="Listen Live to World News and the Bible"
/></a>
</cfif>
