can i make 2 clock running at the same time?

hello all,

im curious if i can have 2 of the same clocks running at the same time but with "1" having a differant text than the other. if so how?

im in the process of making a clock.

ok. i found out how to make 2 clocks. but the second clock needs to be in a different font. but every time i play the animation, the font stays the same as the first clock. how would i do that.

thanks again for the help!

no clue how to do that. if i post the code hear. could you modify it to be, offset? if soo hear you go!

_root.onEnterFrame = function ()

    var _loc1 = _loc3.getHours();
    var _loc2 = _loc3.getMinutes();
    var _loc4 = _loc3.getSeconds();
    var _loc5;
    if (_loc1 >= 12)
    {
        _loc5 = "PM";
    }
    else
    {
        _loc5 = "AM";
    } // end else if
    if (_loc1 == 0)
    {
        _loc1 = 12;
    } // end if
    if (_loc1 > 12)
    {
        _loc1 = _loc1 - 12;
    } // end if
    if (_loc1 < 10)
    {
        _loc1 = " " + _loc1;
    } // end if
    if (_loc2 < 10)
    {
        _loc2 = "0" + _loc2;
    } // end if
    if (_loc4 < 10)
    {
        _loc4 = "0" + _loc4;
    } // end if
    time_txt.text = _loc1 + ":" + _loc2 + " " + _loc5;
   time2_txt.text = _loc1 + ":" + _loc2 + ":" + _loc4 +" " + _loc5;
    hours_txt.text = _loc1 + ":";
    mins_txt.text = _loc2 + " ";
    ampm_txt.text = _loc5;

lol. Thanks dude.

e-T Will it not run more than one text box with the same instance name?
And also, what if you have 2 different codes, on to seperate layers, as well as the text boxes?

Well, if i have a diff. code, and it names in the Variable, does that matter?
And it doesnt _txt.
the codes are on my flash clock thread.
Ill throw somethin together to see real quick.

well he is wanting the clocks to run different times so yhe has to use diff. variables    if they arew the same then it is fine.

i actually want all my clocks to run at the same time. but you said i could not have them at the same time and one had to be offset.  i just want one of the clocks/date to be in differant font.
