Hi sebbothebutcher,

Is this what you are trying to do?

<script language="JavaScript">
var date = new Date();
var d = date.getDate();
var day = (d < 10)? '0' + d : d;
var m = date.getMonth() + 1;
var month = (m < 10)? '0' + m : m;
var yy = date.getYear();
var year = (yy < 1000)? yy + 1900 : yy;
year = (year+"").substring(2,4)

document.writeln(day,month,year+".html");
</script>

to get a 4 digit year just remove or uncomment the substring function!

This one takes care of the 0 in both day and month:

<script language="JavaScript">
var date = new Date();
var d = date.getDate();
var m = date.getMonth() + 1;
var yy = date.getYear();
var year = (yy < 1000)? yy + 1900 : yy;
year = (year+"").substring(2,4)

document.writeln(d,m,year+".html");
</script>
