    I would like to write a web page that displays a clock and retrieves the time from http://www.usno.navy.mil/USNO/time. I found this one example that uses:

    But what I don’t understand is http://tycho.usno.navy.mil/cgi-bin/xbmclock.xbm?zone=GMT& retrieves a file called xbmclock.xbr. What I want to do is extract the time in a number format and I would make the display with fancy graphics. Ether one number at a time or as a whole format.

    How could I use that link to just get the number format the time?

    *I want to do this in javascript…no jquery recommendations please.
