Maybe this will help you

http://uk2.php.net/date

AFAIK theres no way to do it in HTML

Yea...sorry if I sound like an idiot...but I tried that, and well, I have no clue how to implement that.

Would you mind posting the exact code (so I can copy+paste) in here for me to have it formatted like I have it?

I know that is asking a lot, and if you don't want to or can't, that is fine. Either way, thanks for the link and trying to help!

<?php
$today = date("m.d.y"); 
//replace the current static date with
echo = ("$today");
?>

^ That should work. I've never done active time/date stuff before but try it. Keep it mind that the variable ($today) and the echo statement should both be inside php tags (<?php, ?>)

Im not sure how clear that is to you, let me know.

Your file extension has to be .php

You would have to use javascript if you wanted to keep the .html or .htm

Thats PHP code he gave you. You can copy/paste that and it will work if..

* You insert it into a PHP file filename.php

* Your server has PHP installed.

if you're still having trouble with this let me know... I know there's gotta be a simple way to do this with Javascript and it'd be an interesting learning project for myself :yes:

Check this one out, it looks like what you're talking about:

Try the code bellow... it works like it does on www.hp.com

copy the code bellow to your page.

&lt;script LANGUAGE = "JavaScript"&gt;

&lt;!--

// Array of day names

var dayNames = new Array("Sunday","Monday","Tuesday","Wednesday","Thursday","Friday","Saturday");

var monthNames = new Array("January","February","March","April","May","June","July","August","September","October","November","December");

var dt = new Date();

var y  = dt.getYear();

// Y2K compliant

if (y &lt; 1000) y +=1900;

// --&gt;

&lt;/script&gt;

add the code bellow where you want your date to show.

&lt;script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript"&gt;document.write(monthNames[dt.getMonth()] + " " + dt.getDate() + ", " + y);&lt;/script&gt; &lt;/div&gt;

    • AI is as big a scam as FTX was...run by the same 'group' of people as well.
    • Slack Business+ plan jumps to $15/month as AI features launch by Paul Hill Salesforce has announced a price increase for one of its plans, which will add a few dollars per user each month to organizations' bills. The Slack Business+ plan will see prices rise from $12.50 to $15 per user per month if you pay for a whole year up front; if you pay monthly, the bill will increase from $15 to $18. Salesforce has kept the prices of its Pro plan the same and introduced a new Enterprise+ plan with custom prices for larger organizations. The new price adjustments will take effect on August 17 if you’re planning to renew, and immediately for any new customers. So, if you are renewing before August 17, you will be able to delay this price rise for around a year. The company isn’t just pulling a fast one on customers with these price rises. It’s adding AI to all paid plans, so if you use these features, the increase somewhat justifies them. We saw a similar tactic from Google Workspace back in January. New AI features and deeper Salesforce integration Slack has outlined all the new AI features coming to its Pro, Business+, and Enterprise+ plans starting from July 17. The Pro Plan will have access to conversation and thread summaries, plus huddle notes, while Business+ will have all of those plus: AI Search, Recaps, Translations, File summaries, Workflow generation, and Summarize channels workflow step. The Enterprise+ subscription has all those AI features plus Enterprise search. Additionally, it provides enhanced security, admin controls, governance, and compliance. The company also announced that all plans, including the free plan, will get access to Salesforce Channels, which lets you use Slack and Salesforce together directly within their Customer 360 Apps. Who benefits? By embedding AI right within Slack, organizations should be able to boost efficiency more easily in their daily operations. To ensure that it keeps up with the competition, the company is investing significant resources into its research and development to deliver new innovations. Affected organizations will need to try to find effective ways to use these AI tools to make the price increase worth it, whether this is speeding up tasks to free workers up for other work or something else. The move definitely doesn’t hurt Slack because it’ll make more money whether you use these AI tools or not.
