To drop a date or time into your web-page, you first need to create an .htaccess file to get the server to parse your html files for server-side includes.
In the .htaccess include the line:
AddType text/x-server-parsed-html html
Then within the html code include a line like:
<!--#config timefmt="%A, %e %B %Y" -->
<!--#echo var="DATE_GMT" -->
This is then replaced by the server time/ date before being served up to the browser.
The possible date/time values are:
Code Purpose of Code
%a Abbreviated weekday name
%A Full weekday name
%b Abbreviated month name
%B Full month name
%c Locale's appropriate date and time representation
