Thanks much for the suggestion Michael.

It does not seem to paste the date into the field though. Let meknow please if 
I am missing something in my coding below:

<script type="text/javascript"> 
function show_now() { 
var my_time = new Date();
document.myForm.myDate.value = my_time;
}
</script>

<body bgcolor="#ffffff" text="#000000" link="#0000ff" vlink="#800080" 
alink="#ff0000"> 

<form name="myform">
<input name="mydate" type="text" size="10" /> 
<input type=button value="Show Time" onclick="show_now();"> 
</form>

say you have a field named "myDate" in a form named "myForm" then instead
of:

alert(my_time);

put:

document.myForm.myDate.value = my_time;
