Maybe it checks your system clock?

It doesn't change automatically, you need to refresh. Shame.

That's your browsers responsibility, not the site's.

Well, It be accurate most of the time =)

it's friday now, so when I go there is says "yes" I assume it just says "no" on other days?

Muzer
14 Jul 2006, 17:18
Yeah. your right. It does say no on other days.

Cyclaws

Well, it could automatically refresh itself every 5 minutes or something.

SupSuper
14 Jul 2006, 18:38
Or, you could just set your browser to do that for you. Well, Opera can do that, dunno if other browsers can.

I'm pretty certain Firefox can't do that.

You don't need extensions with Opera.
Right click on page -> Reload every... -> 5 minutes

Its just some very basic javascript. TheEnd.
Althought I do love its simplicity. Thats going in my mound of bookmarks.

It's not javascript. Check the HTML source. Odds on it's PHP.

It should also warn you "Oh no! Monday again."

No, it shouldn't.
That'd defeat the joke, as telling you what day it was, apart from whether or not it's Friday, would make it marginally more useful.

Yes it does! It points us to an important link, that tells us if today is a Friday. And this world would be a good bit more complicated if we didn't know if it was a Friday or not, so we need this topic!

I suppose... If I didn't have a calendar directly right of my computer I might agree...

AndrewTaylor

You're not, but I mean it has to be something serverside if it's not showing up in the HTML source, and PHP is the most common, in my experience.
That or it's some guy changing the page over twice a week.

Makes me wonder, is there other sites like 'Is it Sunday' or 'Is it Wednesday'???
It'd be weird if there was one entitled 'Is it January'.

Well given that Christmas was originally a Pagan festival and is now almost totally secular I really don't see the harm. Besides which, "Christmas" is a funny word.

I doubt your political correctness is any worse than ours.
There was a case when children in a junior school were banned from mentioning Christmas in any way, shape or form, IIRC.

Besides, various anti-Christian terrorists might want to plan a terror attack at Christmas and need to know if it's the right time already. :D

Dear CIA/NSA/FBI agent!

Well yea, that much was obvious, but did you really NEED to do it? It would have been obvious anyway.
Sarcasm's always funnier the less blatant it is anyway.

Not always. Totally overblown sarcasm can be funny as well.
