To have the current date displayed on your pages you can use any of the dynamic languages that are available. Placing the coding within Fusion is accomplished in exactly the same way regardless of whether you are using ASP, PHP, ColdFusion, or JavaScript.
Step 1:
Double click within the text box or table cell where you wish the date to appear to enter edit mode
Step 2:
Press CTRL + T to bring up the HTML dialogue box
Step 3:
Paste the following code within the HTML insertion dialogue box input area
<?php
$today = date("F j, Y");
PRINT "$today";
?>
This will produce a date formated like: October 3, 2024
Other operators you can use and how they will change the way the date is displayed for you
Y - Year as 2004
y - Year as 04
M - Month as Oct
m - Month as 10
D - Day as Tue
d - Day as 29
z - Day of the year as 301
H - Hours in 24 hour format as 18
