- Sort by reaction score
This could work
PHP:
<?php
$nextWeek = time() + (7 * 24 * 60 * 60);
// 7 days; 24 hours; 60 mins; 60secs
echo 'Now: '. date('Y-m-d') ."\n";
echo 'Next Week: '. date('Y-m-d', $nextWeek) ."\n";
// or using strtotime():
echo 'Next Week: '. date('Y-m-d', strtotime('+1 week')) ."\n";
?>
This should also work:
Is it a simple html website? ...You just insert the code where you want the date to appear.
Code:
<script>
var mydate=new Date()
var year=mydate.getYear()
if (year < 1000) year+=1900
var day=mydate.getDay()
var month=mydate.getMonth()
var daym=mydate.getDate()
if (daym<10) daym="0"+daym
var dayarray=new Array("Sunday","Monday","Tuesday","Wednesday","Thursday","Friday","Saturday")
var montharray=new Array("January","February","March","April","May","June","July","August","September","October","November","December")
document.write(""+montharray[month]+" "+daym+", "+year+"")
</script>Is it a simple html website? ...You just insert the code where you want the date to appear.
Yes, it's a simple HTML site.
So like this:
<code>
<html>
<head>
<title>Today's Journal</title>
</head>
<body>
<script>
var mydate=new Date()
var year=mydate.getYear()
if (year < 1000) year+=1900
var day=mydate.getDay()
var month=mydate.getMonth()
var daym=mydate.getDate()
if (daym<10) daym="0"+daym
var dayarray=new Array("Sunday","Monday","Tuesday","Wednesday","Thursday","Friday","Saturday")
var montharray=new Array("January","February","March","April","May","June","July","August","September","October","November","December")
document.write(""+montharray[month]+" "+daym+", "+year+"")
</script>
<p> Lorem ipsum . . . . </p>
</body>
</html>
</code>
So like this:
<code>
<html>
<head>
<title>Today's Journal</title>
</head>
<body>
<script>
var mydate=new Date()
var year=mydate.getYear()
if (year < 1000) year+=1900
var day=mydate.getDay()
var month=mydate.getMonth()
var daym=mydate.getDate()
if (daym<10) daym="0"+daym
var dayarray=new Array("Sunday","Monday","Tuesday","Wednesday","Thursday","Friday","Saturday")
var montharray=new Array("January","February","March","April","May","June","July","August","September","October","November","December")
document.write(""+montharray[month]+" "+daym+", "+year+"")
</script>
<p> Lorem ipsum . . . . </p>
</body>
</html>
</code>
Yes, exactly. You can also place it in a table, center it with <center> tags, etc. etc.

But remember, before your evening ends, you have to slip the GPS transponder into your date's pocket or handbag. Remember to turn it on, or else the link to Google Maps won't work...
