TIME DATE please help

[COVERFIRE]

Okay, I've tried to follow the tutorial on this site for the digital clock but I still can't get it. All I want is a simple dynamic text box that says "DayOfWeek, Month, Date". I have Flash MX. Please help because I've done everything the tutorial says with no luck.

I didn't know what you meant by date so I just put the day of the week. Post if you don't understand it, or it doesn't work.



dayArray = new Array("Sunday", "Monday", "Tuesday", "Wednesday", "Thursday", "Friday", "Saturday");
monthArray = new Array("Jan", "Feb", "Mar", "Apr", "May", "Jun", "July", "Aug", "Sep", "Oct", "Nov", "Dec");
myDate = new Date();
dayOfWeek = myDate.getDay();
month = myDate.getMonth();
dateNum = myDate.getDate();
dynamicText = dayArray[dayOfWeek] add ", " add monthArray[month] add ", " add dateNum;

[[m]]

Never use add, it's flash 4 syntax. Use + instead.


(and a little smaller ;))


dynamicText = (["Sunday", "Monday", "Tuesday", "Wednesday", "Thursday", "Friday", "Saturday"])[(new Date()).getDay()] + ", " + (["Jan", "Feb", "Mar", "Apr", "May", "Jun", "July", "Aug", "Sep", "Oct", "Nov", "Dec"])[(new Date()).getMonth()]
+ ", " + (new Date()).getDate();
