Yet another JavaScript digital clock widget<\/a> comes with day, date, and AM\/PM time format. It displays local time with real-time updating seconds. This clock uses a “Digital-7” font family for clock digits that make it real.<\/p>\n

You can integrate this clock to display the current date and time to users. Moreover, the clock can be highly customized with CSS according to your needs.<\/p>\n

How to Create JavaScript Digital Clock with Date<\/h2>\n

1. First, create a div element with a unique id “clockdate” and place two div elements inside it with an id \"clock\"<\/code> and \"date\"<\/code> respectively.<\/p>\n

<div id=\"clockdate\">\r\n  <div class=\"clockdate-wrapper\">\r\n    <div id=\"clock\"><\/div>\r\n    <div id=\"date\"><\/div>\r\n  <\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/pre>\n
2. After that, define the CSS styles for the digital clock as follows:<\/p>\n
@font-face{\r\n    font-family: 'Digital-7';\r\n    src:  url('fonts\/digital-7.ttf') format('woff2'),   b ,g,mdrx\r\n    url('digital-7.woff') format('woff');\r\n}\r\n.clockdate-wrapper {\r\n    background: #141E30;  \/* fallback for old browsers *\/\r\n    background: -webkit-linear-gradient(to right, #243B55, #141E30);  \/* Chrome 10-25, Safari 5.1-6 *\/\r\n    background: linear-gradient(to right, #243B55, #141E30); \/* W3C, IE 10+\/ Edge, Firefox 16+, Chrome 26+, Opera 12+, Safari 7+ *\/\r\n    padding:25px;\r\n    max-width:350px;\r\n    width:100%;\r\n    text-align:center;\r\n    border-radius:5px;\r\n    margin:0 auto;\r\n  \r\n}\r\n#clock{\r\n    font-family: Digital-7, 'sans-serif';\r\n    font-size:60px;\r\n    text-shadow:0px 0px 1px #fff;\r\n    color:#fff;\r\n}\r\n#clock span {\r\n    color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.8);\r\n    text-shadow:0px 0px 1px #333;\r\n    font-size:50px;\r\n    position:relative;\r\n    top:-5px;\r\n    left:10px;\r\n}\r\n#date {\r\n    letter-spacing:3px;\r\n    font-size:14px;\r\n    font-family:arial,sans-serif;\r\n    color:#fff;\r\n}\r\n<\/pre>\n
3. Finally, add the JavaScript function (between the <script> tag<\/a>) for the digital clock before closing the body tag.<\/p>\n
function startTime() {\r\n    var today = new Date();\r\n    var hr = today.getHours();\r\n    var min = today.getMinutes();\r\n    var sec = today.getSeconds();\r\n    ap = (hr < 12) ? \"<span>AM<\/span>\" : \"<span>PM<\/span>\";\r\n    hr = (hr == 0) ? 12 : hr;\r\n    hr = (hr > 12) ? hr - 12 : hr;\r\n    \/\/Add a zero in front of numbers<10\r\n    hr = checkTime(hr);\r\n    min = checkTime(min);\r\n    sec = checkTime(sec);\r\n    document.getElementById(\"clock\").innerHTML = hr + \":\" + min + \":\" + sec + \" \" + ap;\r\n    \r\n    var months = ['January', 'February', 'March', 'April', 'May', 'June', 'July', 'August', 'September', 'October', 'November', 'December'];\r\n    var days = ['Sun', 'Mon', 'Tue', 'Wed', 'Thu', 'Fri', 'Sat'];\r\n    var curWeekDay = days[today.getDay()];\r\n    var curDay = today.getDate();\r\n    var curMonth = months[today.getMonth()];\r\n    var curYear = today.getFullYear();\r\n    var date = curWeekDay+\", \"+curDay+\" \"+curMonth+\" \"+curYear;\r\n    document.getElementById(\"date\").innerHTML = date;\r\n    \r\n    var time = setTimeout(function(){ startTime() }, 500);\r\n}\r\nfunction checkTime(i) {\r\n    if (i < 10) {\r\n        i = \"0\" + i;\r\n    }\r\n    return i;\r\n}\r\nstartTime();\r\n<\/pre>\n
