Need a little html help please

Hi Fellow Warriors,

I cannot seem to figure this out so I figured who better to ask then warrior gurus.

I have a website: http://corporatevalues.com/

Two questions:

1 - You will notice that there appears to be a "v" on the drop down menu navigation which I think may be an arrow indicating more below. How do I get rid of it without compromising the drop down menus

2 - You will notice at the top right of the screen today's date is displayed but it is not properly displaying as there is an extra 1 and 20 for the year. How do I add the 20 in front of the year and get rid of the 1?

Any help and direction is greatly appreciated.

Thanks so much,
Kim

    Hi Kim,

    I can't see anything wrong with your page.

    What you described doesn't seem to show up when I visit the page???

    Maybe try refreshing your browser and view it again.

    Have a Great Day!
    Michael

    Try editing your CSS by removing this code from your chromestyle2.css:

    Code:
    #chromemenu ul li a[onMouseover]:after{ /*HTML to indicate drop down link*/
content: " v";
/*content: " " url(downimage.gif); /*uncomment this line to use an image instead*/
}

    Sure thing.

    Insert before </head>:

    Code:
    <SCRIPT language=JavaScript>
function makeArray(n) {
this.length = n
return this
}
monthNames = new makeArray(12)
monthNames[1] = "January"
monthNames[2] = "February"
monthNames[3] = "March"
monthNames[4] = "April"
monthNames[5] = "May"
monthNames[6] = "June"
monthNames[7] = "July"
monthNames[8] = "August"
monthNames[9] = "September"
monthNames[10] = "October"
monthNames[11] = "November"
monthNames[12] = "December"
function dateString(oneDate) {
var theMonth = monthNames[oneDate.getMonth() + 1]
var theYear = oneDate.getFullYear()
return theMonth + " " + oneDate.getDate() + ", " + theYear
}
//-->
</SCRIPT>
    Then insert the code below where you want the date to display:

    Code:
    <script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">document.write(dateString(new Date()))</script>

    Ok, so note that the array is returning numerical values while it should display names of months. I think you need to test other code to display date.

    EDIT: sorry, my bad... It is displaying month. Just not adding up year correctly.

    IMHO, Sam.

    Ok, at <td bgcolor="#295d94" height="10" width="14%">
    the above code, can you give it more room to display the date?

    Can adjust 14% to about 20% and see.

    If the array code is correct, then this could be an issue.

    Code grab from CHROME browser:

    <!-- Hide this script from old browsers --
    // Store current date into year, month, day variables
    var date = new Date();
    var day = date.getDate();
    var month = date.getMonth()+1 ;
    var year = date.getYear();
    // Determine month name from month number
    if(month==1) Month="January";
    if(month==2) Month="February";
    if(month==3) Month="March";
    if(month==4) Month="April";
    if(month==5) Month="May";
    if(month==6) Month="June";
    if(month==7) Month="July";
    if(month==8) Month="August";
    if(month==9) Month="September";
    if(month==10) Month="October";
    if(month==11) Month="November";
    if(month==12) Month="December";
    // Write current date to variable DayDateTime.
    var DayDateTime=(Month + " " + day + ", " + year);
    // Displays variable DayDateTime.
    document.write(DayDateTime);
    // -- End hiding here -->


    What's with the "==" -- Eric above has other code.

    Make sure you are not inserting weird stuff cutting and pasting.

    Kim,

    My suggestion is that you compare this code to the original, and if you don't spot a problem, find other code to display date -code compatible with many browsers. Just about any blog software is displaying a date, so, you can try something like that.

    Ok, the Sage needs to rest.
    Success,
    Sam

    Kim Heres your solution for the date.

    change this line: var year = date.getYear();

    To this: var year = date.getUTCFullYear();

    Checked it out and it works. Did not see the arow problem you were talking about.


    Good Luck, Philip
