JavaScript - Script to denote if something's open or not
It might be over my head, but I want to make a script that will check the current date and time, then based off a pre-defined set of dates and times, it would display a simple "open" or "closed" message.
A real world example is a store is open 9-5 monday thru friday. So if you go to the page, it would tell you if the store is open or closed at the current time. I know some basic javascript (i know java better) but I don't really know where to start.

It has been a very long time since i have done anything with Javascript.
However, I know that this would be fairly simple in VBScript - but then again, javascript is built into more browsers than vbs. It should be about the same though.. so let me look up some JS functions real quick... Code:
var openHour = 9;
var closeHour = 17;
var hour = now.getHours();
var open = false;
if (hour > openHour) [ open = true ]
if (hour > closeHour) [open = false]
if (open) [ document.write('Open for business!') ]
else [ document.write('Sorry, we're closed!') ]
I would think that should do the trick.... If you need to break it down into minutes, etc. it would just be a matter of assigning a minute variable and checking that as well.
