    Hy,

    I´m not really sure about this issue, but why the hell would you want to do such? :D

    Why don´t you just wait until next year?

    None the less, I don´t think that this will be a problem if you really want to.
    But you might at least own the license of ur domain until next year.

    Bye

    Just use php to insert the current year, then you'll never have to worry about updating your (c).

    <? print date("Y"); ?>
    PHP:

    If you want to display both this year and next year without ever changing it it changes it self

    ---------------
    Put this code where you want it

    
    Copyright &copy; <?php print date("Y"); ?> - <?php echo date('Y') + 1; ?>
    
    PHP:
    This looks like this

    Honestly, just putting copyright 2008 doesn't mean much, depending on the sites content you would need a hell of a lot more to actually have a copyright stand up in court. For example a creative commons licence, or even more.

         'Is the current year equal to the year the site was created?
        If DateTime.Now.Year.ToString() <> YearSiteCreated Then
         'If not then concatenate year created and current year
         DynamicCopyrightYear = YearSiteCreated & "-" & DateTime.Now.Year.ToString()
        Else
         DynamicCopyrightYear = YearSiteCreated
        End If
        
        Dim Copyright As String = "Copyright &copy; " & DynamicCopyrightYear & ". All rights reserved."
