Hi,

I used this action script and tried changing the 12 to 24 and back and nothing changed:

onClipEvent (enterFrame) {  
myTime = new Date();  
nSeconds = myTime.getSeconds();  
nMinutes = myTime.getMinutes();  
nHours = myTime.getHours();  
if (nHours\>=12) {  
ampm = “pm”;  
} else {  
ampm = “am”;  
}  
if (nHours\>=13) {  
nHours = nHours-12;  
}  
if (length(nMinutes) == 1) {  
nMinutes = “0”+nMinutes;  
}  
if (length(nSeconds) == 1) {  
nSeconds = “0”+nSeconds;  
}  
nTime = nHours+":"+nMinutes+":"+nSeconds+" "+ampm;  
}

I want it on regular time. How?
