It is in your forums main directory!

2 questions:

Is it possible to have an additional time stamp on the posts with this time format?

And

Is it possible to show the NET seconds in the current NET display also?

I already installed this neat little hack. I think it's kind of cool.

To the seconds:

They are already shown! It is the value ' while ? are the "hours"

The the time stamp.
I will have a look at it and see if it can be done!
Your idea is very good! :)

Actually, only the date, hours and minutes are being shown.

2001-06-08 / 212° 57' NET

..^Date.........^Hrs.^Minutes and no seconds are being shown.

I would like to be able to show the seconds, I am sure it is possible, but I am just a novice when it comes to java, php, and html.

Any ideas on how to do this?

The ' value are not the minutes!

Get away from thinking in hours, minutes and seconds when looking at the NET! ;)

The first values are in degrees, the seconds value are angle minutes, which equals 4 seconds!

What you can do is to show also the angle seconds ( '' ), but that wouldn't probably work, because the time giver in your PC can't resolve these short intervals!

Interesting hack, to say the least... However, I'm pretty comfortable using GMT (or Zulu) time. Being a pilot, I have to use it quite frequently.

Good job on writing it, but I don't think it's for everyone. :)

You are telling me that a PC is incapable of resolving 1/15th of a second? I would have to disagree with that.

I understand very well the increments of New Earth Time. It is very straight forward.

1 degree NET = 15 minutes standard time
1 minute NET = 4 seconds standard time
1 second NET = 1/15th of a second standard time (this being the portion which is not shown in the display)

New Earth Time is simply a translation of the earth's rotation, which happens to coincide with standard earth units of degrees, minutes, and seconds. Any navigator or mapper I am sure will agree with me that seconds do exist when you are measuring in this fashion.

I simply want to take New Earth Time clock a small step further in displaying this additional information on my bulletin board.

I am looking for additional code that could be inserted into either the javascript or the template that would display this information, and possibly a way to time stamp people's posts on my bulletin board with this additional format.

OK, I haven't found out yet how to show every NET second, but I have manged to show the NET seconds every real time second (00, 15, 30, 45)!

Use the file 2 posts below and replace your current net-3.js in order to show NET seconds!

Update:

It's not possible to show the time in shorter intervals than a real time second!

getSeconds is the smallest available interval!

If there would be something like getMilliseconds it would work!

I tried that code, and got a runtime error in line 41

runtime error
line 41
Error: Expected ')'

that would be this line:

My browser is IE 5.5, but I couldn't even begin to trouble shoot that one.

Thanks for the update. Any ideas on that error?
