I see this question come up quite a bit in the forums, so I thought I would post the answer here for folks to use.

There are a couple of different ways that you can place an autodate script in your website code, with javascript or php coding.You can use a few lines of JavaScript which picks up the date information from the visitor’s computer and displays it on the web page. Here’s the full javascript version if you want to copy it:<script language=”JavaScript”>

var days=new Array(8);
days[1] = “Sun”;
days[2] = “Mon”;
days[3] = “Tue”;
days[4] = “Wed”;
days[5] = “Thu”;
days[6] = “Fri”;
days[7] = “Sat”;
var months=new Array(13);
months[1] = “Jan”;
months[2] = “Feb”;
months[3] = “Mar”;
months[4] = “Apr”;
months[5] = “May”;
months[6] = “Jun”;
months[7] = “Jul”;
months[8]= “Aug”;
months[9] = “Sep”;
months[10] = “Oct”;
months[11] = “Nov”;
months[12] = “Dec”;
var dateObj=new Date()
var wday=days[dateObj.getDay() + 1]
var lmonth=months[dateObj.getMonth() + 1]
var date=dateObj.getDate()
var year=dateObj.getYear()
if (year >= 100 && year <= 1999)
{year=year + 1900}
else
{year=year}
document.write(wday + “, ” + date+ ” ” + lmonth + ” ” + year)
