- You are trying to use a variabe before declaring/assigning it ( if (h>12) )
- You don't provide the 'checkTime()' function that you call twice
- You need to make a first initial call to the 'setClock()' function to start your 'setTimeout()' loop

It looks right ;)
With an element id set to "clock", and a first call to your setClock() function, for zwample in the "onload" attribute of <body>:
<body onload="setClock();">
<div id="clock"></div>
</body>

Visph Thanks for the help.
I think i fixed it.
hows this look?
var ampm = " ";
function setClock() {
var today = new Date();
var h = today.getHours();
var m = today.getMinutes();
var s = today.getSeconds();
m = checkTime(m);
s = checkTime(s);
if (h < 12){ ampm = " AM" }else{ampm = "PM"};
document.getElementById('clock').innerHTML =
h%12 + ":" + m + ":" + s + ":" + ampm;
var t = setTimeout(setClock, 500);
}
function checkTime(i) {
if (i < 10) {i = "0" + i}; // add zero in front of numbers < 10
return i;
}
