I have been trying to figure out how to refresh the time (and only the time) automatically in my webpage, but I can't seem to get it. 

This is what I have.

```
var d = new Date();
var weekday = d.getDay();
var day = d.getDate();
var month = d.getMonth() + 1; //JS says jan = 0
var year = d.getFullYear();
var minutes = d.getMinutes();
var hours = d.getHours() + 1; //eastern time zone
var seconds = d.getSeconds();
var ms = d.getMilliseconds();

function distime(minutes, hours, month, day, year) {
    if (minutes < 10) {
        var lowMin = "0" + minutes.toString();
        document.getElementById("timecode").innerHTML = hours.toString() + ':' + lowMin + ' ' + month.toString() + '/' + day.toString() + '/' + year.toString();
        alert("here");
    } else
        document.getElementById("timecode").innerHTML = hours.toString() + ':' + minutes + ' ' + month.toString() + '/' + day.toString() + '/' + year.toString();
    alert("here");
};

//      var clockTime = distime(minutes, hours, month, day, year);

function init(minutes, hours, month, day, year) {
    alert("init");
    distime(minutes, hours, month, day, year);
    setTimeout(distime, 10000);
};

var initTime = init(minutes, hours, month, day, year);

```

The time is attached to a div, in HTML and I am not using PHP.

I have heard that I need to use ajax to do this, but I'm not sure how to implement that.

Again, my question is: How do I refresh the time every 10 seconds so that it will display correctly on my site. 

Thanks!

The updated code that solved my problem can be seen below.

```
var time = {};

(function () {
  var clock = document.getElementById('timecode');

  (function tick () {
    var minutes, d = new Date();
    time.weekday = d.getDay();
    time.day = d.getDate();
    time.month = d.getMonth() + 1; //JS says jan = 0
    time.year = d.getFullYear();
    time.minutes = d.getMinutes();
    time.hours = d.getHours() + 1; //eastern time zone
    time.seconds = d.getSeconds();
    time.ms = d.getMilliseconds();

    minutes = (time.minutes < 10 ? '0' + time.minutes : time.minutes);

    clock.innerHTML = time.hours + ':' + minutes + ' ' + time.month + '/' + time.day + '/' + time.year;

    window.setTimeout(tick, 1000);
  }()); // Note the parens here, we invoke these functions right away
}()); // This one keeps clock away from the global scope

```

Thanks to everyone who helped!
