    rookie css question

    I truly tried to get this one on my own...

    I am new to javascript, like 2 hours ago.
    So I'm messing with an example that inserts the current date in an html
    page. I want to keep the example and have my stylesheet fonts applied.


    Would someone kindly give me an example of how to get this done? Do I
    modify the document.write and where?

    ::excerpt from test.html::

    today = days[now.getDay()] + ", " +
    months[now.getMonth()] + " " +
    date + ", " +
    (fourdigits(now .getYear())) ;

    // Print out the data.
    document.write( "" +today+ "");

    TIA!
    JT

      Hi ,

      There are three types of styles : inline , embaded, css stylesheet. I
      think you want this type!!

      You must first write your style of your elements and name that file a
      ..css
      Then, link that file with html ?.html >>>> But sould in the head e.g.
      <head>
      <link rel="stylesheet " type="text/css" href="a . css" />

      </head>
      In addition , modify document.write in JS also inside the head ....

      That what I have to tell!

          You probably want to remove the 'date + ...' line
          [color=blue]
          > (fourdigits(now .getYear())) ;[/color]

          getFullYear() is pretty widely supported, so why not:

          now.getFullYear ();


          For messing with date and time formats, have a read of Dr. J's pages:

          <URL:http://www.merlyn.demo n.co.uk/js-index.htm>
          [color=blue]
          >
          > // Print out the data.
          > document.write( "" +today+ "");[/color]

          document.write( '<p class="someClas s" '
          + 'style="font-family: sans-serif;">'
          + today + '<\/p>');
          [color=blue]

              I appreciate the help. Should have included more info.
              I have this in my html, and what is defined in base.css is working for
              fonts, headers, etc:

              <link rel="stylesheet " type="text/css" href="assets/base.css" />
              </head>

              I havent' been able to find an example of document.write that I clearly
              see a call to the css, the junk I want to write, or how they work
              together. Or is it a better practice to create an element (?) in the
              css and use it the document.write statment? Any examples?
              I'll try to learn something in the meantime <g>.

                  Prior to worrying about browser scripting, or CSS, it would be a good
                  idea to learn how to write HTML. The above is not valid HTML, as
                  feeding it through an HTML validator would rapidly reveal.

                  Richard.
