look at this example:

var dayarray=new Array("Sunday","Monday","Thusday","Wednesday","Thu rsday","Friday","Saturday")
var montharray=new Array("January","February","March","April","May"," June","July","August","September","October","Novem ber","December")

function getthedate(){
var currentTime = new Date();

var day=currentTime.getDay();
var day_month = currentTime.getDate();
if (day_month<10){
day_month="0"+day_month;
}
var month = currentTime.getMonth();
var year = currentTime.getFullYear();

var hours=currentTime.getHours();
var minutes=currentTime.getMinutes();
var seconds=currentTime.getSeconds();

var last="am";
if (hours>=12){last="pm";}
if (hours>12){hours=hours-12;}
if (hours==0){hours=12;}

if (minutes<=9){minutes="0"+minutes;}
if (seconds<=9){seconds="0"+seconds;}

var ddate=dayarray[day]+"&nbsp;"+day_month+"&nbsp;"+montharray[month]+"&nbsp;"+year+",&nbsp;"+hours+":"+minutes+":"+sec onds+"&nbsp;"+last;

$(".date_time").html(ddate);

setTimeout("getthedate()",1000);
}

So the final line, will run the getthedate function every 1000ms (1 sec)
