    hi all, i am currently making a website and i have decided to put a javascript date and time into it... all was working fine on all browsers at first now suddenly its not working on IE6, nothing!! I know IE6 is old however ALOT of companys are still using it, why i really dont know!!

    Here is the code i use on the main page 

    <script language="javascript" src="liveclock.js"></script>
    Code (markup):
    with 
    <body onLoad="show_clock()">
    Code (markup):
    then in the liveclock.js file i have 

    
	var myfont_face = "Verdana";

	var myfont_size = "10";

	var myfont_color = "#000000";
	
	var myback_color = "";

	var mypre_text = "";

	var mywidth = 123;

	var my12_hour = 1;

	var myupdate = 1;
	var DisplayDate = 1;

        var ie4=document.all
        var ns4=document.layers
        var ns6=document.getElementById&&!document.all


	var dn = "";
	var mn = "th";
	var old = "";

	var DaysOfWeek = new Array(7);
		DaysOfWeek[0] = "Sunday";
		DaysOfWeek[1] = "Monday";
		DaysOfWeek[2] = "Tuesday";
		DaysOfWeek[3] = "Wednesday";
		DaysOfWeek[4] = "Thursday";
		DaysOfWeek[5] = "Friday";
		DaysOfWeek[6] = "Saturday";

	var MonthsOfYear = new Array(12);
		MonthsOfYear[0] = "January";
		MonthsOfYear[1] = "February";
		MonthsOfYear[2] = "March";
		MonthsOfYear[3] = "April";
		MonthsOfYear[4] = "May";
		MonthsOfYear[5] = "June";
		MonthsOfYear[6] = "July";
		MonthsOfYear[7] = "August";
		MonthsOfYear[8] = "September";
		MonthsOfYear[9] = "October";
		MonthsOfYear[10] = "November";
		MonthsOfYear[11] = "December";

	var ClockUpdate = new Array(3);
		ClockUpdate[0] = 0;
		ClockUpdate[1] = 1000;
		ClockUpdate[2] = 60000;

	if (ie4||ns6) { document.write('<span id="LiveClockIE" style="width:'+mywidth+'px; background-color:'+myback_color+'"></span>'); }
	else if (document.layers) { document.write('<ilayer bgColor="'+myback_color+'" id="ClockPosNS" visibility="hide"><layer width="'+mywidth+'" id="LiveClockNS"></layer></ilayer>'); }
	else { old = "true"; show_clock(); }

	function show_clock() {
		if (old == "die") { return; }
	
	
		if (ns4)
                document.ClockPosNS.visibility="show"

		var Digital = new Date();
		var day = Digital.getDay();
		var mday = Digital.getDate();
		var month = Digital.getMonth();
		var hours = Digital.getHours();


		var minutes = Digital.getMinutes();
		var seconds = Digital.getSeconds();

		if (mday == 1) { mn = "st"; }
		else if (mday == 2) { mn = "nd"; }
		else if (mday == 3) { mn = "rd"; }
		else if (mday == 21) { mn = "st"; }
		else if (mday == 22) { mn = "nd"; }
		else if (mday == 23) { mn = "rd"; }
		else if (mday == 31) { mn = "st"; }

		if (my12_hour) {
			dn = "AM";
			if (hours > 12) { dn = "PM"; hours = hours - 12; }
			if (hours == 0) { hours = 12; }
		} else {
			dn = "";
		}
		if (minutes <= 9) { minutes = "0"+minutes; }
		if (seconds <= 9) { seconds = "0"+seconds; }

		myclock = '';
		myclock += '<font style="color:'+myfont_color+'; font-family:'+myfont_face+'; font-size:'+myfont_size+'pt;">';
		myclock += mypre_text;
		myclock += hours+':'+minutes;
		if ((myupdate < 2) || (myupdate == 0)) { myclock += ':'+seconds; }
		myclock += ' '+dn;
		if (DisplayDate) { myclock += ' '+DaysOfWeek[day]+', '+mday+mn+' '+MonthsOfYear[month]; }
		myclock += '</font>';

		if (old == "true") {
			document.write(myclock);
			old = "die";
			return;
		}

	// Write the clock to the layer:
		if (ns4) {
			clockpos = document.ClockPosNS;
			liveclock = clockpos.document.LiveClockNS;
			liveclock.document.write(myclock);
			liveclock.document.close();
		} else if (ie4) {
			LiveClockIE.innerHTML = myclock;
		} else if (ns6){
			document.getElementById("LiveClockIE").innerHTML = myclock;
                }            

	if (myupdate != 0) { setTimeout("show_clock()",ClockUpdate[myupdate]); }
}
    Code (markup):
    and as you see it has a browser detect so i really dont understand why nothing is working in IE6, anyone got any ideas?

    Thanks
