How to get the current time (in 24 hour format)?
Posted: Mon Feb 04, 2013 12:51 am
I've suggested DemoPad provide in some global variable the current local time (available programatically via IOS anyway). I'm told it's coming. In the mean time, does anyone have an easy, without special programming, way of getting the current time from within DemoPad?
One approach that was suggested was to "fire off a command to a website to discover the time and, using feedback, capture it". So, I have 2 questions:
1- I assume I would need to define a new device (Web address) to get the required 2-way feed back going, right?
2- What Web site provides a short response when asked the time in a paricular city, in 24 hour format? I'm looking for an easy RegEx on this. Any examples?
Besides this approach, have any of you encountered this requirement and what are your solutions? Remember the requirement: no language programming...
