Time date basic tutorials
The date and time element is designed to display a 12 or 24 hour digital clock on your web page. The 'time' is also designed to display your 'visitors' local time, not your local time.
Remove the time/date component
- open the flash folder
- open the time date folder
- delete the 'time_date.swf' file
Change 12/24 hour display
- open your index.htm page (or any pages using this layout with the flash header)
- switch to code view
- locate the following code on line (approximately line 39, this may vary)
var clock24hour = 1; // 0 = 12 hour clock, 1 = 24 hour clock
- for 12 hour display, change the number (indicated in bold red as 1 in this example) to "0"
- for 24 hour display, change the number in red to "1"
This component can be modified in the following ways:
- deleted from your web page
- the time can be set to display 24 hour
- the day, month descriptions can be changed to suit your language
- the font size, color, type and weight can all be modified
How do I change the date time (BONUS FEATURE)?
There are really only three options to go with.
- Modify the source FLA file using Macromedia Flash 8.
The Case Study video goes through the steps on how to
accomplish this task.
- Send in a special request to our design team and
we'll modify the descriptions (day and month).
- Check the support_information.pdf document included with this template package. On the support_information.pdf document we've included a section located at the bottom of the doc, for 'updates'. If we've already modified a file to suit your specific language group, you may be able to download it from the support document.
