I know there will not be a massive speed difference but just wondering what would be faster out of a javascript function and the same asp function

e.g

Javascript

<SCRIPT type="text/javascript" language="javascript">

var mydate=new Date()
var year=mydate.getYear()
if (year < 1000)
year+=1900
var day=mydate.getDay()
var month=mydate.getMonth()
var daym=mydate.getDate()
if (daym<10)
daym="0"+daym
var dayarray=new Array("Sunday","Monday","Tuesday","Wednesday","Thursday","Friday","Saturday")
var montharray=new Array("January","February","March","April","May","June","July","August","September", "October","November","December")
document.write("<font color='000000' face='arial'>"+dayarray[day]+", "+montharray[month]+" "+daym+", "+year+"</font>")

                &a mp;n bsp;     </SCRIPT>


or asp



Response.write(FormatdateTime(Now(),2))

In terms of CPU usage, the ASP will still be faster. Unloading that onto the client just doesn't really make much sense as there are no real savings and javascript is slow, so you just make the page slower on the client if you have a lot of scripts in there.

Bandwidth wise, your probably going to save a lot with ASP anyway.
