Mobile Phone Clock - Simple Digital 24 Hour Clock
Hi

I need to make a digital clock/watch for a mobile phone flash demo. I know there are lots of clock on flash kit but they all have seconds and minutes - I need just hours and minutes! - The clock also has to be 24 hour.

I've tried taking the code from a flash kit clock and tweaking it but it seems to screw up - for example 07.03 comes out as 7.3 - looks really naf like that!

If anyone can help me out with a source file or some code I would be most greatful!

Countdown Clock (sync With Server Clock In .asp) PLEASE HELP
I used Senocular's awesome countdown clock tutorial found here:

http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/countdown2.htm

but I need to figure out how to sync it to my server's clock (I understand I must do this in a .asp file and then load that into flash).

Using vbscript this is what I tried, but obviously it doesn't work I think I may need to convert it completely to seconds first before bringing it into flash:

<%
Dim MyTime
MyTime=now()
response.Write("time="&MyTime)
%>

Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks so much!

Detecting Clock Wise And Anti Clock Wise Rotation
hey troops!

nube's first post.

can you tell me if it is possible to detect if an object is rotating anti clockwise or not?

at present i get x,y co-ords and use the code below to rotate it which is fine. now i could write an if statement to check if rotation is negative or positive but because rotation can be negative and positive when rotating clockwise and anti clockwise this wouldnt work.

any ideas?

Code:
theAngle = Math.atan2(diffy , diffx);

this._rotation = theAngle*360/(2*Math.PI);

updateAfterEvent();
cheers in advance

Clock
how do i get the time and date on my flash page?????

CLOCK
okey firstly i dont want a clock i my site.....but i want the site to react to the clock on the system that it is on.

Is there a way in which i could set the _alpha of a layer according to the time. i.e if its eight oclock at night set the alpa of 'so and so' layer to 20%.

Would there be anyway of doing it subtly say at 8 oclock the alpha of a layer is at 0 and by midnight it is 100, filling in the bits in between gradually

any ideas anyone

thanks

I REALLY need a clock in my flash movie. Here's the catch though - I need the movie to display both Uk and USA times - bear in mind that the browser may be in either the UK or US when viewing the movie though.

Please can you help me?

Each hour I want play this sound incluided in the movie "bip bip bip bip bip biiiiiiiip" You know? Thanks for help me.

SPANISH: Hola!

he crerado un reloj en flash MX y funciona muy bien. Trabajo en una pequeña radio y quisiera saber si en la película de mi reloj se puede poner un actionscript que hiciera sonar cada hora un sonido incluido en la película. Sería reproducir cada hora las señales horarias, el típico "bip bip bip bip bip biiiiiip" ¿sabes lo que quiero decir? Espero que puedan ayudarme.

now in FRENCH:

Salut!!
j'ai crée un film en Flash MX d'une montre qui fonctionne très bien mais je travail dans une petite radio et je voudrai mettre, par le moyen d'un actionscript, chaques heures les bip qui indique qu'il est par exemple 15:00 pile. C'est à dire le "bip bip bip bip bip biiiiiiip" Peux-tu m'aider???

THANKS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OK I did a tutorial on making an analog clock
"http://www.flashkit.com/tutorials/Actionscripting/Real-Tim-Marcos_J-187/index.php"
I followed the instructions perfectly. It says to put this code in:

code:
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
MyDate = new Date();
hour = MyDate.getHours();
minute = MyDate.getMinutes();
second = MyDate.getSeconds();
if (hour> 11) {
hour = hour-12;
}
hour = hour*5;
movement = minute/12;
hour = int(hour+movement);
with (_root.Clock.Hours) {
gotoAndStop(hour) + 1;
}
with (_root.Clock.Minutes) {
gotoAndStop(minute) + 1;
}
with (_root.Clock.Seconds) {
gotoAndStop(second) + 1;
}
}

However it says that the script has no errors until I try the swf file. Can someone help me on this manner please

Thank you

I'm trying to make an analog flash clock on my site that will show
my local time without depending on the users computer clock.
means from any country you will see the same hour, which is the time in my office.
any ideas?

Clock Help
Hey There,

I have been following the many great clock tutorials here at flashkit, however with all of them, once I test my clock, the hands seem to move independantly of each other and move off to different points around the clock, even though I followed the tutorial to the letter!

Has anyone else had this problem and was able to correct it?

Please help me out, it's driving me nuts!!!

The version I'm using is flash5 if that makes any difference!

Thanks

Non Cpu Clock

GMT/UTC Clock?
Hi peeps.

I have this code:

Code:
onClipEvent (load){
mon = ["01","02","03","04","05","06","07","08","09","10","11","12"];
weekdays = ["SUN","MON","TUE",
"WED","THU","Fri","SAT"];
}
onClipEvent (enterFrame){
now = new Date()
nDay = weekdays[now.getUTCDay()]
nMonth = mon[now.getUTCMonth()]
nDate = now.getUTCDate()
nYear = now.getUTCFullYear()
displayDate = nDay+", "+nDate+"/"+nMonth+". "+nYear
}
&

Code:
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
myTime = new Date();
nSeconds = myTime.getUTCSeconds();
nMinutes = myTime.getUTCMinutes();
nHours = myTime.getUTCHours();
if (length(nMinutes) == 1) {
nHinutes = "0"+nMinutes;
}
if (length(nSeconds) == 1) {
nSeconds = "0"+nSeconds;
}
nTime = nHours+":"+nMinutes+"."+nSeconds+" GMT";
displayDay = nDay
}
It works pretty well but it still goes out of sync if you change your PC time.

Anyone got any idea how I can get it to update via somewhere other than the CPU clock??

Cheers guys~

Clock
(This is not a real time clock)I am currently trying to develop a clock movie clip using actionscript. I have created the MC (clockface, hourhand and minutehand).

would i am trying to do is

1. rotated each hand separately so that they stop at specific point round the clockface.

2. MC minutehand will rotate to 5 minutes 10 minutes and so on, then MC hourhand will rotate 1 hour 2 hour and so on.

can anyone point me in the right direction or send me some use full tutorials that will enable me to do this.

this is would have done so far - thought I had it figured out on Friday. I am a newbie to actionscript!

PHP Code:

onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
     if (_root.hourHand._rotation == 0) {
          _root.hourHand._rotation = 30;
          _root.hourHand._rotation = 60;
          _root.hourHand._rotation = 90;
          _root.hourHand._rotation = 120;
          _root.hourHand._rotation = 150;
          _root.hourHand._rotation = 180;
          _root.hourHand._rotation = 210;
          _root.hourHand._rotation = 240;
          _root.hourHand._rotation = 270;
          _root.hourHand._rotation = 300;
          _root.hourHand._rotation = 330;
          _root.hourHand._rotation = 360;
     }else{
          _root.hourHand._rotation = 0;
     }
}

Clock
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!

Clock Help
i'm using my personal website to keep my family and friends in on what's going on over here in Iraq and i thought it would be cool to include west coast, mountain, and Iraq time all on my webpage for them. Our wing webpage has an example https://www.blab.centaf.af.mil. Anybody have a clue how to do this with actionscript so i can add it to my website?

Regarding The Clock....
I'm putting in two digital clocks on a flash movie. The first one will show local time, the other a time in another part of the world. (+4 GMT). First, here is the code I'm working with:

Code:
time=new Date(); // time object
var seconds = time.getSeconds()
var minutes = time.getMinutes()
var hours = time.getHours()
if (hours<12) {
ampm = "AM";
}
else{
ampm = "PM";
}
while(hours >12){
hours = hours - 12;
}
if(hours<10)
{
hours = "0" + hours;
}
if(minutes<10)
{
minutes = "0" + minutes;
}
if(seconds<10)
{
seconds = "0" + seconds;
}
clock_txt.text = hours + ":" + minutes + ":" + seconds +" "+ ampm;
Where in this would I set it so it will reflect the +4 GMT time?

Thanks in advance!

I'm using Flash 5 and I want to create a clock. I've made a movieclip of one of the hands and I created an instance of it, called 'hand_seconds'. How do I actually get it rotated?
I tried the following, but it doesn't work.

seconds.getSeconds()
seconds2 = (seconds/360)*60
setProperty (hand_seconds, _rotation, seconds2)

Could anybody help me please?

Count Down Clock
I need help creating a count down clock. One which will count down from 5 minutes and include seconds and minutes. I need for a scoreboard I'm making I would also like to know if it would be able to stop the clock so to pause a game. Thanx

Clock Time
I need to create a clock that counts down using not only hours, minutes and seconds but also 10's/100's and 1000's of seconds.

I have been able to create a clock that counts down as per the usual standard, but can get no further.

This is the code so far:

myDate = new Date();
seconds = myDate.getSeconds();
minutes = myDate.getMinutes();
hours = myDate.getHours();
seconds2 = 59-seconds;
minutes2 = 59-minutes;
hours2 = 23-hours;
if (length(minutes2) == 1) {
minutes2 = "0" + minutes2;
}
if (length(seconds2) == 1) {
seconds2 = "0" + seconds2;
}
timetil12 = (hours2+":"+minutes2+":"+seconds2);

Help My Clock Tickking
I'm trying to get an analog clock to work.

I manage to do so sofar... (excuse me, it's all in Dutch ), but for some reason I cann't get it to work in this SITE. Click in this site ball no. 4 from above in left menu (excuse me, it's even more "all Dutch" ) .

Whatever I've tried, copy / paste 'Rustruimte.html'- Javascript in html of my pop-up 'default2.html', it doesn't work. I probably do something terrible stupid? Perhaps the script needs to be modified a little? Or...?

I hope someone can help, and tell me what and where exactly to copy / paste for I don't know much..., and yet tried so many myself

All tips are more than welcome. Tnkx in advance.
