You can't have a dynamic clock on a webpage using a server-side script like 
PHP.  That requires a client-side script or applet.  What you can have PHP 
do is show the current time every time a page is reloaded.  That's easy 
enough: Just use the date() function somewhere.  And what the other guy 
that replied to you mentioned, using the meta tag to refresh the page every 
60 seconds, that will simulate it but isn't guaranteed to work perfectly on 
all browsers.

PHP is a server-side script and generates code before the user gets the 
page.  It doesn't alter the page once the user has it, like Javascript does.
