Get systemdate?

Question

I want to display the current date and time.how can I do that with oracle portal?
I find and i call this with a pl/sql item :
declare
l_sysdate date;
begin
l_sysdate := wwctx_api.get_sysdate;
dbms_output.put_line('The system time is ' ||
to_char(l_sysdate, 'MM/DD/YYYY HH24:MI:SS'));
end;
But i take a blank page....
thanks

Try this:
DECLARE
l_sysdate DATE;
BEGIN
l_sysdate := SYSDATE;
htp.p('The system time is '||TO_CHAR(l_sysdate,'MM/DD/YYYY HH24:MI:SS'));
END;I have something similar in a dynamic page which is published as a portlet.
