The Script

Flash 5 allows you to link scripts to Movie Clip events. In this example you will use the event enterFrame to do the trick.

To type in the script for the Movie Clip, right click it on the stage and choose Actions to open the Object Actions dialogue box. Change the clip event to EnterFrame.

Below is the complete script for this clock.

onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
 // Gets the time information and stores in MyDate
 MyDate = new Date();
 // Assigns values individually
 hour = MyDate.getHours();
 minute = MyDate.getMinutes();
 second = MyDate.getSeconds();
 // Calculates position for hours hand
 if (hour> 11) {
 hour = hour-12;
 }
 hour = hour*5;
 movement = minute/12;
 hour = int(hour+movement);
 // Moves hours hand
 with (_root.Clock.Hours) {
 gotoAndStop(hour) + 1;
 }
 // Moves minutes hand
 with (_root.Clock.Minutes) {
 gotoAndStop(minute) + 1;
 }
 // Moves seconds hand
 with (_root.Clock.Seconds) {
 gotoAndStop(second) + 1;
 }
}
