error Shop Open and Close Times script

[UFNITE]

I’m using javascript to display open/close times but my script is not working.

Dreamweaver says their is a syntax error on line 6

var d = new Date();

var t_hour = d.getUTCHours(); // getUTC for GMT0

var t_min = d.getUTCMinutes();

var t_day = d.getUTCDay();



if (t_hour == 8 && t_min >= 30 && t_day > 0 && t_day < = 5)

{

document.write('open.');

}

else if (t_hour > 8 && t_hour < 18 && t_day > 0 && t_day < = 5)

{

document.write('open.');

}

else

{

document.write('closed.');

}

and in BODY

Our shop is.

Try removing the space from line 6, almost all the way at the end of the line.
Line 6 is now:

if (t_hour == 8 && t_min >= 30 && t_day > 0 && t_day < = 5)

whereas it should, I think, be:

if (t_hour == 8 && t_min >= 30 && t_day > 0 && t_day <= 5)

Edit: you have the same thing on line 10. Don't know for sure this causes the problem though.

I removed the space from between the < and the =

Thanks Bob, that worked.

Now to figure out how to sort the days and times

[UFNITE]

Monday: CLOSED
Tuesday: 9AM – 5:30PM
Wednesday: 9AM – 5:30PM
Thursday: 9AM – 5:30PM
Friday: 12PM – 8PM
Saturday: 8AM – 2PM
Sunday: CLOSED

Say i tried to have

t_day 3 (tuesday) t_hour == 9 (is that pm or am?)

how would i specific a closing t_hour to be 5:30PM?

and if its any later than that how would it display the closed if statement… a greater than sign?

Thanks.

t_hour == 9 is AM, since getUTCHours() returns the hour from 0-23. So 9 is still AM.

For 5:30PM, you could do the following:

var d = new Date();

var t_hour_minutes = d.getUTCHours() + ":" + d.getUTCMinutes();



if (t_hour_minutes > "17:30") {

document.write('closed');

}

Edit: I’m not really good with timezones and all that stuff, 5:30PM would seem 17:30 to me, but it might be 18:30 or so because of daylights saving.. I don’t know, but this should get you started.

Tuesday open 9:00am close 5:30pm – this doesn’t function properly any idea why?

if (t_hour == 9 && t_min >= 00 && t_day > 2 && t_day < = 2)

{

document.write('open');

}

else if (t_hour > 5 && t_hour < 17 && t_min >= 30 && t_day > 2 && t_day <=2)

{

document.write('open');

}

Thats because you made the same error again – you put a space between < and = on line 1. Remove that space.
