    <script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
    <!--
    TheDate = new Date();
    var Months=new Array("January","February","March","April","May","June","July","August","September","October","November","December");
    var Days= new Array("Sunday","Monday","Tuesday","Wednesday","Thursday","Friday","Saturday","Sunday");
    wd = TheDate.getDay();
    //Convert digit to string
    wd = Days[wd];
    d = TheDate.getDate();
    //Append zero to one-digit date for consistency
    if (d < 10)
    {d = "0" + d;}
    m = TheDate.getMonth();
    m = Months[m];
    y = TheDate.getFullYear();
    dstring = ""+wd+"" + " " + ""+d+"" + " " + ""+m+"";
    document.write(dstring);
    //-->
    </script>

    I should have added - that is Client Side JavaScript and will therefore use the time on the users computer rather than the time on your web server.

    sorry - forgot time bit - try this:-
    <script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
    <!--
    TheDate = new Date();
    var Months=new Array("January", "February", "March", "April", "May", "June", "July", "August", "September", "October", "November", "December");
    var Days= new Array("Sunday", "Monday", "Tuesday", "Wednesday", "Thursday", "Friday", "Saturday","Sunday");
    wd = TheDate.getDay();
    //Convert digit to string
    wd = Days[wd];
    d = TheDate.getDate();
    //Append zero to one-digit date for consistency
    if (d < 10)
    {d = "0" + d;}
    m = TheDate.getMonth();
    m = Months[m];
    y = TheDate.getFullYear();

    var theTime = new Date();
    var Hours;
    var Mins;
    var Time;
    Hours = theTime.getHours();
    if (Hours >= 12) {
    Time = " P.M.";
    }
    else {
    Time = " A.M.";
    }

    if (Hours > 12) {
    Hours -= 12;
    }

    if (Hours == 0) {
    Hours = 12;
    }

    Mins = theTime.getMinutes();

    if (Mins < 10) {
    Mins = "0" + Mins;
    }

    document.write( wd + " " + d + " " + m+" ");
    document.write(Hours + ":" + Mins + Time + '');

    //-->
    </script>
