Answer 1

write specifically what error you are getting

Answer 2

so I understood he wants time to change all the time.

Answer 3

// Insert this to JS section

function digitalClock() {
var date = new Date();
var hours = date.getHours();
var minutes = date.getMinutes();
var seconds = date.getSeconds();

if (hours < 10) hours = "0" + hours;
if (minutes < 10) minutes = "0" + minutes;
if (seconds < 10) seconds = "0" + seconds;
document.getElementById("id_clock").innerHTML = hours + ":" + minutes + ":" + seconds;
setTimeout("digitalClock()", 1000);
}

<!-- Insert this to HTML section and before and after call function digitalClock(); add tag script -->
<div id="id_clock"></div>
digitalClock();

Answer 4

In line 45 you are just re-using the initial time. If you want it to show the current time, you need to get a new date/ current time right before this line.

Answer 5

No specific error
I just wanted the code to change seconds automatically
But I have rewritten the code
