Current day and date

Question

I've created a fairly simple website in which I've inserted
the day and date and want it to update automatically according to
my location, which is the same as the server. Currently, it is in
the following format: Friday, March 14, 2008. I've not been able to
find a simple, clear, step by step answer in my online searches. I
am not a programmer so if you tell me about code you may need to
provide a little extra detail. Do I need to create an html or shtml
page for this code instruction or can I simply insert some magic
code into my current html page? Thanks for your time and help with
this!

<tr>
<td width="558" height="33" valign="middle"
class="style1">
<script>
document.write(new Date());
</script>
</td>
</tr>
Note removal of breaks, and BTW "height" is an illegal
attribute for <td>
Another way:
<script>
Date.prototype.normal=function(){
return
["Sun","Mon","Tue","Wed","Thu","Fri","Sat"][this.getDay()]+
", "+
["Jan","Feb","Mar","Apr","May","Jun",
"Jul","Aug","Sep","Oct","Nov","Dec"][this.getMonth()]+
" "+
this.getDate()+
", "+this.getFullYear();
</script>
<tr>
<td width="558" height="33" valign="middle"
class="style1">
<script>
document.write(new Date().normal());
</script>
</td>
</tr>
