Help with Swatch Clock

« on: August 04, 2024 @193.69 »

Hi! I've wanted to experiment with integrating JavaScript with a website, and I thought a simple project would be adding a swatch clock, but for some reason it doesn't seem to work? I copied the code from Melon's post about swatch clocks, and followed the instructions as best as I know how to, but it just displays "@000" which I have in there as static default text that's supposed to be replaced by the clock itself. I've attached some screenshots of the code if anyone can help me find what I might be missing? I've included the JavaScript file, as well as the span that holds the clock, and the script tag where I've linked the .js file. Thank you very much!

J makes some good points!

I'd also recommend using the defer keyword when running scripts on your site, it makes sure that the script doesn't run until all of your html is loaded. If you have your script in the <head> of your html, functions like document.getElementById can break because the elements they're looking for haven't loaded yet.

Code

<script defer src="/script.js">
