Adding date and time stamps

You can add a date and time stamp to your Web page, so that viewers see when you last updated your page. In Adobe GoLive, you can add a date and time stamp using the Modified Date icon in the Objects palette. First, you use the icon to add a date stamp, and then you use the icon to add a time stamp. Adobe GoLive reads the current date and time from your computer's built-in, real-time clock and writes the result in a custom tag. It then updates the date and time information dynamically whenever you save the page.

To insert a date or time stamp:

1 If you want descriptive text before the date or time stamp (for example, "Last revised:"), type the text in your document window.

2 Choose Window > Objects.

3 In the Objects palette, click the Smart tab ().

4 Drag the Modified Date icon from the Objects palette to the document window, or double-click the icon in the Objects palette.

5 Choose Window > Inspector.

6 In the Modified Date Inspector, choose a country from the Format menu to view the date and time formats for the specific country.

7 Select a format for the date or time stamp that you have added to your page.

8 Choose File > Save. The date or time stamp displays the exact date or time when you used the Save command.
