Hi all,
i was working on my project today and i created some easy digital clock and time that retrieves the time and date from the user his computer. The digital clock is completely working but the problem is, I need to refresh my swf all the time to get the time updated.
Declaring variables:
//variables for digital clock
var time:TextField = new TextField();
var datefinal:TextField = new TextField();
var mydate:Date = new Date();
var seconds = mydate.getSeconds();
var minutes = mydate.getMinutes();
var hours = mydate.getHours();
var day = mydate.getDay();
var date = mydate.getDate();
var month = mydate.getMonth();
var year = mydate.getFullYear();
This is my code:
public function DigitalClock(){
var ClocktextFormat:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
ClocktextFormat.font = myFont.fontName;
ClocktextFormat.size = 130;
time.autoSize = TextFieldAutoSize.LEFT;
time.selectable = false;
time.y = 550;
time.x = 0;
time.defaultTextFormat = ClocktextFormat;
time.textColor = 0xFFFFFF;
time.embedFonts = true;
time.antiAliasType = AntiAliasType.ADVANCED;
bg.addChild(time);
datefinal.autoSize = TextFieldAutoSize.LEFT;
datefinal.selectable = false;
datefinal.y = 700;
datefinal.x = 0;
datefinal.defaultTextFormat = ClocktextFormat;
datefinal.textColor = 0xFFFFFF;
datefinal.embedFonts = true;
datefinal.antiAliasType = AntiAliasType.ADVANCED;
bg.addChild(datefinal);
if (day==0){
day = "Sunday"
} else if (day==1){
day = "Monday"
} else if (day==2){
day = "Tuesday"
} else if (day==3){
day = "Wednesday"
} else if (day==4){
day = "Thursday"
} else if (day==5){
day = "Friday"
} else if (day==6){
day = "Saturday"
}
if (month==0){
month = "January"
} else if (month==1){
month = "February"
} else if (month==2){
month = "March"
} else if (month==3){
month = "April"
} else if (month==4){
month = "May"
} else if (month==5){
month = "June"
} else if (month==6){
month = "July"
} else if (month==7){
month = "August"
} else if (month==8){
month = "September"
} else if (month==9){
month = "October"
} else if (month==10){
month = "November"
} else if (month==11){
month = "December"
}
if (minutes<10) {
minutes = "0"+minutes;
}
if (seconds<10) {
seconds = "0"+seconds;
}
time.text = ((hours) + ":" + (minutes) + ":" + (seconds));
datefinal.text = ((day) + " " + (date) + " " + (month) + " " + (year));
}//end of public function DigitalClock(){
Thanks in advance,
Wouter
