This is the basic clock giving the current time on the user's computer.
By default, the clock shows seconds, runs in 0-12 mode and has the leading zero disabled. There is a shaded bezel, which you can disable if you like, and a small amount of padding which is adjustable horizontally and vertically in the 'Options' dialog, depending on the end-use.
Use any of the clock styles provided or produce your own.
Although included as an example, the alarm clock is not meant to replace your computer's own alarm clock. It is limited by the fact that it only works on the current Web page. Once you leave the page, the alarm is lost.
The generated page has links to let you set the alarm time and view the set alarm time. When the alarm goes off, you can optionally show an alert box or have the clock take you to another page called 'alarmpage.html" where you can put whatever you want.
The Countdown Clock allows you to show your readers how many days, hours, minutes and seconds there are left to some specific future event. It could be a new product launch or an expiry date for a competition entry.
Enter the date and time of the event you want to count down to in the 'Options' dialog before generation your clock style.
You can display up to ten different time zones on your Web page with this option. The clocks show the time in cities anywhere in the World that you like. By default, it generates times in five cities - San Francisco, New York, London, New Delhi and Tokyo but you can add, delete or change these as you wish in the Options dialog.
Time zones can get quite complicated as not only are there time shifts, but you have to account for any daylight saving time and the fact that some cities do not shift their time zones by whole hours.
In the Timezones Clock Options dialog, you first have to determine your time offset from GMT (Greenwich mean Time). This is the time in London, UK during winter months (not Daylight Saving Time).
Then you need to decide how many cites you want to show the time in. You can have up to ten but bear in mind that if you have a lot of cities, the clock style will need to be smaller to be accommodated within the page width.
You then have to set the time offsets for each city (from GMT) and add any odd minutes (as the example for New Delhi shows) and also the compensation for daylight saving time. If all your cities are in one country, just leave the GMT offset for your own city and all the others at zero and the time will be adjusted automatically from the users' computer clocks. Double click the cells to make them editable.
The labels for the cities are stored in GIF files named "city1.gif" to "city10.gif". You should replace these with appropriate labels for the cities you want using any small MiniFont.
The Stopwatch works like any stopwatch. It has a start/stop link and the ability to reset to zero. The Stopwatch counts upwards in milliseconds but the ability to display each and every millisecond is obviously determined by the speed of the computer. In any case, it shouldn't be left running for extended periods as it eats a lot of the computers processing time.
