    book example of inline javascript won't work

    in JavaScript

    Posted

    I am in the process of teaching myself HTML, CSS, and Javascript from Sam's teach yourself book. The following example is an example of book examples I have had to recode to make them work. I have been able to figure out why all but this one would not work. 

    blah...blah...blah
<body>
  <h1>blah.blah</h1>

<script type="text/javascript">
now = new Date();
localtime = now.toString();
utctime = now.toGMTString();
document.write("<p><strong>Local time:</strong> " + localtime + "</p>");
document.write("<p><strong>UTC time:</strong> " + utctime +"</p>");
  ...and so on ...

    I had to run the javascript from a linked file. Has this type of inline scripting been deprecated since the book was published in 2014? If not, What am I missing?

     

    Thanks for your replies.
