    Maybe you can use AJAX.

    For example : You have index.jsp
    There is a button and a read-only text field in index.jsp.
    When s/he clicks the button, the text field will be filled with current server time.

    Here're the steps
    1. Create a file for example named time.jsp. When a user visits time.jsp directly in his / her browser, s/he will get the current server time.
      The time is written in JSP code (i don't know the JSP syntax to write the current time).
    2. Now add AJAX code in index.jsp.
      1. When the button is clicked, put the AJAX request here.
      2. a request to time.jsp is made.
      3. The AJAX request result will be inserted in the read only text field, or in any place (in index.php).

    I'm not sure if this is even close to what you want but is it something like this:

    <html>
    <head>
<script type="text/javascript">
var today = new Date();
</script>

      
    </head>
    <body>
<form> 
<textarea name="textarea1">
</textarea>
<input type="button" value="ADD DATE" onClick="this.form.textarea1.value+=[new Date()]"> 
</form> 


    </body>
</html>
    Code (markup):
