Server time (Macromedia Flash clock)
Create a clock in Macromedia Flash containing an hourHand, minuteHand and secondHand.
Then, add the following actionscript:
Load = function() {
now_init = new Date();
daysummertime = (31 - 5*now_init.getFullYear/4 - now_init.getFullYear/100 -now_init.getFullYear/400 +5) % 7;
daywintertime = (31 - 5*now_init.getFullYear/4 - now_init.getFullYear/100 -now_init.getFullYear/400 +2) % 7;
dateSummerTime = new Date(now_init.getFullYear, 3, daysummertime);
dateWinterTime = new Date(now_init.getFullYear, 10, daywintertime);
};
_root.onEnterFrame = function() {
now = new Date();
// This script supports an external 'seconds since 1970' value.
// If not set, the value will be set based on the clients current time.
// The idea is that an external 'seconds since 1970 date/time' value can
// be provided. This way, the script will calculate the elapsed time
// relative to this fixed time/date value. This is useful is you would
// want to pass the webserver current date/time to the clock script and
// calculate and display the elapsed time from there by the client.
// Note: with Flash, elapsed time can only be calculated by the client.
// milliseconds elapsed
if (s_ext == undefined) {
d = now.getMilliseconds();
s = now.getSeconds();
m = now.getMinutes();
h = now.getHours();
hourHand._rotation = h*30+m/2;
minuteHand._rotation = m*6+s/10;
// Ticking clock
// secondHand._rotation = s*6;
// Smooth clock
secondHand._rotation = s*6+d/156;
if (h>11) {
txt_ampm.text = "PM";
} else {
txt_ampm.text = "AM";
}
} else {
d_elapsed = new Number(now.getTime()-now_init.getTime());
d_now = new Number(d_elapsed+(s_ext*1000));
now1 = new Date(d_now);
d1 = now1.getUTCMilliseconds();
s1 = now1.getUTCSeconds();
m1 = now1.getUTCMinutes();
h1 = now1.getUTCHours();
// External Time Offset due to Time Zone differences
//h1 = h1 +2;
// If your external time web server is located in a timezone
// with daylight savings time, we have to use a formula
// to calculate the (varying) offset value
if (now1>datesummertime && now1
h1 = h1 + 2;
} else {
h1 = h1 + 1;
}
// Update clock hands
hourHand._rotation = h1*30+m1/2;
minuteHand._rotation = m1*6+s1/10;
// Ticking clock
// secondHand._rotation = s1*6;
// Smooth clock
secondHand._rotation = s1*6+d1/156;
if (h1>11) {
txt_ampm.text = "PM";
} else {
txt_ampm.text = "AM";
