Pulling server time, client side

[mike3011]

I'm totally new to JavaScript. Is there anyway that I could pull a server time off of a website that is actually visible, with javascript. Say the server time had a specific id within the HTML. Is there anyway I could use that to pull the server time and write it to a text file?

Hi
[ul]
[li]Are your documents static HTML files or generated dynamically ?[/li]
[li]Do you need the server time once when the page loads or need to synchronize regularly ?[/li]
[li]By "write it to a text file" do you mean touching the visitor's local disk ?[/li]
[/ul]

I've already got the server time issue figured out with the document.GetElementById(). But the text file will be put onto my computer. MY local disk. No one elses.
