Hi All,
In the following code my attempt at formatting the date returns this
to the output window:
//
**Error**

55: This statement is not permitted in a class definition.
now = new Date();
**Error**
BushidoDeep:Users:chris:Desktop:hello:com:bushidodeep:Hello.as: Line
56: This statement is not permitted in a class definition.
trace ("The Time is " + formatTime(now));
