FYI...your clock script flickers
needlessly... Instead of refreshing every 1/10 of a second, you might want
to change the following line in your clock script
window.setTimeout("tick();", 100);
To refresh every second...
window.setTimeout("tick();", 1000);
or even strip off the seconds and just display
minutes.
Many web developers put this in for the "cool"
factor, or because they can, but seconds provide little value in this
case.

Thank you for your feedback. I have fixed
it. Friday night 10:30 pm. What we do too please our customers ;) As for
the website it is my responsibility and not that of our programmers, so you can
be confident that this does not reflect our programmers skills.

Time on Declude Support
Actually, it shows -4 hours.
GMT as I write this is 01:46
The code they use on the page subtracts five hours, which results in a
value of -4 for the hours. They need to add a line to add 24 if the result is
negative. I'm sure it looks fine 19
hours a day, though...
And no, it does not give me a lot
of confidence, either, but now that we've aired the problem and the cure,
let's see how long it takes to fix...
-d
<SCRIPT> function tick()
{ var hours, minutes, seconds, ap; var intHours, intMinutes,
intSeconds; var today; today = new Date(); intHours =
today.getUTCHours()-5; intMinutes =
today.getUTCMinutes(); intSeconds = today.getUTCSeconds();
//add
this:
if (intHours <
0) {
intHours +=
24
}
if (intHours == 0) {
hours = "12:";
ap = "EST Midnight"; } else if
(intHours < 12) { hours = intHours+":"; ap = " AM EST is the current
time for Declude Support Personnel"; } else if (intHours == 12) { hours
= "12:"; ap = "EST Noon"; } else { intHours = intHours - 12 hours
= intHours + ":"; ap = "PM EST is the current time for Declude Support
Personnel"; } if (intMinutes < 10) { minutes =
"0"+intMinutes+":"; } else { minutes = intMinutes+":"; } if
(intSeconds < 10) { seconds = "0"+intSeconds+" "; } else { seconds
= intSeconds+" "; } timeString =
hours+minutes+seconds+ap; Clock.innerHTML =
timeString; window.setTimeout("tick();", 100); } window.></SCRIPT>

Is just my browser, or is Declude's clock
on: https://www.declude.com/SearchResults.asp?Cat=5 Off? In CET (Central European Time) of
2:15AM, their clock shows 4:15AM EST when it should be showing 9:15PM
EST.
.....hope this doesn't reflect in their 2.0 programming
code. ;-)
