      Hi,

      You can use the Now() function for displaying current date and time.
      e.g.
      Code:
        
   <%
      Dim myDateTime
      myDateTime = Now()
   %>
      Now display the above date and time on the page.

      Code:
          <div id= "div1"><%=myDateTime></div>

              Shweta is right. now() returns the server's time, not the client's time.

                  hi...
                  that is what shwetha needs and shwetha please be clear with your question.
                  As now() is executed on the server, it returns the server time and that is the answer for your question.
