Hi me again! I’m trying to do the digital clock using the tutorial on the site, but without the day and time but I can’t seem to make it work, this is the script i’m using

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

any clues as to what i’m doing wrong? Thanks in advance!
