// 0 = 24, 1 = 12

I have tried adding the null/1 like it says in scrippt but nothing happens

TY
Robert

You want it set at daylight savings time or your time? Setting it to null means that it will run off the computer time if you change that that to say -5 then it will show my time eastern. Try changing that till you get the time you want.

// Your GMT Offset:
// This will allow the clock to always be set to your local
// time, rather than that of the visitor's system Clock.
// Set to "null" to disable this feature.
var LC_GMT = -5;
// Note that this does NOT take into account daylight savings.
// You should add 1 to your GMT offset if daylight savings is
// currently active in your area. null/1

OK telli i tried setting it to -5 and for sum reason it doesn't change clock
