Yes, you did understand correctly. I am not an expert html programmer but
if my understanding is correct, using curl needs php at the backend. The
embedded linux has php package but I am being told not to enable that. I am
using mongoose version 4 and I am looking a solution that will silently
execute the date linux command at the backend upon loading the index.html.
What I am implementing now is using javascript to generate the time format
as follow.
+<script type="text/javascript">
+function getClientDateTime()
+{
+ var digital = new Date();
+ var hours = digital.getHours();
+ var minutes = digital.getMinutes();
+ var seconds = digital.getSeconds();
+ if (minutes <= 9) minutes = "0" + minutes;
+ if (seconds <= 9) seconds = "0" + seconds;
+ dispTime = hours + ":" + minutes + ":" + seconds;
+
+ var date = ((digital.getDate() < 10) ? "0" : "") + digital.getDate();
+ var year = (digital.getYear() < 1000) ? digital.getYear() + 1900 :
digital.getYear();
+ today = year +"-"+(digital.getMonth()+1)+"-"+digital.getDay();
+ serverTime = today+" "+dispTime;
+
+ return serverTime;
+}
+</script>
if I implement it in SSI, how can I pass the return value of
getClientDateTime() to SSI? I am kinda looking of a solution <!--#exec
"date --set getClientDateTime()" -->
Thanks and hoping for your understanding regarding the solution that I am
looking for.
