(Notn a plugin, etc) Need help with switchingskins by time..

[Dennis Tsang]

As far as I remember, you cannot have multiline strings in Javascript. You have to put everything on one line:

document.write(" <everything here on one line> ");

or separate them in different strings

document.write(" <something> "
+ " <another thing> "
+ " <final thing> ");

Okay. Is there any way I can do this with templates too?

EDIT: Is there anything wrong with this script? In it, I assume the clock goes by 1:00 - 24:00 , and not 12:00 AM - 12:00 PM.

<script type="text/javascript">
var ttime= new Date();
var minutes= time.getMinutes()
var seconds= time.getSeconds()
var hours= time.getHours()



if (hours >= 12)
{
document.write('<link rel="stylesheet"
+'type="text/css"'href="http://twinkletowers.freehostia.com/forums/css/theme_7.css" />');
}

if (hours <= 11)
{
document.write('<link rel="stylesheet"
+'type="text/css"'href="http://twinkletowers.freehostia.com/forums/css/theme_7.css" />');
}



</script>

Your time variable is spelt wrong plus some other wrong things. Try the code below.

<script type="text/javascript">
var time= new Date();
var minutes= time.getMinutes()
var seconds= time.getSeconds()
var hours= time.getHours()



if (hours >= 12)
{
document.write('<link rel="stylesheet"'
+ ' type="text/css"'
+ ' href="http://twinkletowers.freehostia.com/forums/css/theme_7.css" />');
}

if (hours <= 11)
{
document.write('<link rel="stylesheet"'
+ ' type="text/css"'
+ ' href="http://twinkletowers.freehostia.com/forums/css/theme_7.css" />');
}

I'm having some trouble. When it is supposed to hit Night (Or, the hours is >= 12) everything goes blank...

Then I tried this:

<script type="text/javascript">
var time= new Date();
var minutes= time.getMinutes()
var seconds= time.getSeconds()
var hours= time.getHours()



if (hours <= 11)
{
document.write('<link rel="stylesheet"'
+ ' type="text/css"'
+ 'href="http://twinkletowers.freehostia.com/forums/css/theme_7.css" />');
}

else
{
document.write('<link rel="stylesheet"'
+ ' type="text/css"'
+ 'href="http://twinkletowers.freehostia.com/forums/css/theme_8.css" />');
}

</script>

Still no luck...

[Martin M.]

Are you sure theme_8.css is a file? Also you need to add a space in front of href=

[Crystatic]

No, it is not a file. I had the same script with a real file (07) however, and it still did not work.

[Crystatic]

Okay, I tried it again, and found out the file that was in the script was not what I needed. There is now a working files in it, and only one string per line. But it still will not work.

Here is the script:

<script type="text/javascript">
var time= new Date();
var minutes= time.getMinutes()
var seconds= time.getSeconds()
var hours= time.getHours()



if (hours =< 11)
{
document.write('<link rel="stylesheet"'
+ ' type="text/css"'
+ 'href="http://www.fileden.com/files/2007/1/20/671381/theme_16.css"'
+ '/>');
}

else
{
document.write('<link rel="stylesheet"'
+ ' type="text/css"'
+ 'href="http://www.fileden.com/files/2007/1/20/671381/theme_16.css"'
+ '/>');
}

</script>
