    I want to add the Date above the Menu in the top right corner like: Friday, 15 September 2006; i wrote some basic javascript to take care of it, and it works great in IE and Firefox, however, regarding SEO one might argue that Google wont be able to read the date as: Friday, 15 September 2006; but as document.write( weekday[d.getDay()] + ", " + d.getDate() + " " + month[d.getMonth()] + " " + d.getFullYear())    hence i rather use some server side code but i havent used a MasterPage.master before, seems to be no codebehind file? How can i insert the current date using C# or VB.NET into the MasterPage.master file??

    <div id="LayerDate">

    <script type="text/javascript">

    <!--

    var d=new Date()

    var weekday=new Array(7)

    weekday[0]="Sunday"

    weekday[1]="Monday"

    weekday[2]="Tuesday"

    weekday[3]="Wednesday"

    weekday[4]="Thursday"

    weekday[5]="Friday"

    weekday[6]="Saturday"

    var month = new Array(12)

    month[0] = "January"

    month[1] = "February"

    month[2] = "March"

    month[3] = "April"

    month[4] = "May"

    month[5] = "June"

    month[6] = "July"

    month[7] = "August"

    month[8] = "September"

    month[9] = "October"

    month[10] = "November"

    month[11] = "December"

    document.write( weekday[d.getDay()] + ", " + d.getDate() + " " + month[d.getMonth()] + " " + d.getFullYear())

    -->

    </script>

     

    </div>

    You could place the line below wherever appropriate in MasterPage.master :

    <asp:Label ID="MyDateLabelId" runat="server" Text='<%# System.DateTime.Now.ToLongDateString() %>'></asp:Label>

    You can format the date as you want it.
