For a clock widget, displaying Eastern Standard Time:

onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
	myTime2 = new Date();
	nSeconds2 = myTime2.getSeconds();
	nMinutes2 = myTime2.getMinutes();
	nHours2 = myTime2.getUTCHours()-5;

	if (nHours2<=0) {
		nHours2 = 24+nHours2;
	}

	if (length(nMinutes2) == 1) {
		nMinutes2 = "0"+nMinutes2;
	}

	nTime2 = nHours2+":"+nMinutes2;
}


Works swell, except that 10 minutes after midnight displays as 24:10 - how would I get it to display 00:10 ?

This is some ugly code, but my brain is n't working today to figre out a simple one liner that does everything at once. this should work.

I noticed you're looking for the double digit. you may also want to prepend a zero on your single integers. ?

At this point, functional is more important than pretty - seems to work.
Cheers!

I had come up with pretty much the same but forgot an "=".
Oops!

you can probably take time off the date and substring the toString but that would be rather ugly hacky one liner that since you have a solution is prob not worth working out.
