I have a script to load the time and date, etc. I have the result load into a div, and that div has an enter CSS3 animation. The only problem is is that it takes a few seconds for the time and date to actually load and it just suddenly appears. Since you don't see it immediately when you load the page, you don't even see the animation because it's over by the time the script loads.
So my question is: is it possible to delay the page load until after the time and date script has loaded?
Disclaimer: This is a purely experimental/creative project I'm working on so I'm not worried about efficiency.
Script:
<script> var dayarray=new Array("Sunday","Monday","Tuesday","Wednesday","Thursday","Friday","Saturday") var montharray=new Array("January","February","March","April","May","June","July","August","September","October","November","December") function getthedate(){ var mydate=new Date() var year=mydate.getYear() if (year < 1000) year+=1900 var day=mydate.getDay() var month=mydate.getMonth() var daym=mydate.getDate() if (daym<10) daym="0"+daym var hours=mydate.getHours() var minutes=mydate.getMinutes() var seconds=mydate.getSeconds() var dn="AM" if (hours>=12) dn="PM" if (hours>12){ hours=hours-12 } if (hours==0) hours=12 if (minutes<=9) minutes="0"+minutes if (seconds<=9) seconds="0"+seconds //change font size here var cdate="<div class='ref'><span>"+hours+":"+minutes+"</span> "+dn+"</div>"+dayarray[day]+", "+montharray[month]+" "+daym+", "+year+"" if (document.all) document.all.clock.innerHTML=cdate else if (document.getElementById) document.getElementById("time-date").innerHTML=cdate else document.write(cdate) } if (!document.all&&!document.getElementById) getthedate() function goforit(){ if (document.all||document.getElementById) setInterval("getthedate()",1000) } </script> HTML:
<body onLoad="goforit()"> <div id="time-date"></div> </body>
