Thread: HTML script question

Anyone:

When I paste this code into an HTML box and run it in the browser, it wants to center the text. I want it to be left-justified. How can I make what is displayed left justified in the box instead of it being centered?


<form name=myForm>
<input type=button value="Loading..." name=clock></form>
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript"><!--
function runClock(){
theTime = window.setTimeout("runClock()", 1000);
d = new Date();
day = d.getDay();
mon = d.getMonth();
date = d.getDate();
year = d.getYear();
hr = d.getHours();
min = d.getMinutes();
sec = d.getSeconds();
if(year<1000){year=(""+(year+11900)).substring(1,5 );}
else{year=(""+(year+10000)).substring(1,5);}
if(hr==0){ap=" AM";hr=12}
else if(hr <= 11){ap=" AM"}
else if(hr == 12){ap=" PM";hr=12}
else if(hr >= 13){ap=" PM";hr-=12}
if(min <= 9){min="0"+min}
if(sec <= 9){sec="0"+sec}
zday=new Array();
zday=["Sunday","Monday","Tuesday","Wednesday","Thurs day" ,"Friday","Saturday"];
zmon=new Array();
zmon=["January","February","March","April","May","Ju ne", "July","August","September","October","Novembe r"," December"];
document.myForm.clock.value=""+zday[day]+", "+zmon[mon]+" "+date+", "+year+" "+hr+":"+min+":"+sec+ap+"";}
runClock();
//--></script>

just place it in the html box and put the box where you want it to display, left - center - right.
here is your code left justified:

I am trying to eliminate the white space on the left and right side of what is displayed in the box, in order to give me more space on my page, as I am putting items to the left and right of it. How can I do that? When I just compress the box it seems to do no good.

Place your html box inside a shape or Iframe.

sample page.................

You probably could use this:

<input style="padding: 2px 2px 2px 2px; .............

padding runs as top right bottom left.

Adjust padding to your liking.
