<HTML>
<head><title>Displaying Times and Dates</title></head>
<body>
<h1>Current Date and Time</h1>
<p>
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript"> 
now = new Date(); 
localtime = now.toString();
 utctime = now.GMTString();
 document.Write ("<b>localtime</b>" + localtime + "</br>");
 document.Write("<b>utctime</b>" + utctime); 
 </script> 
</p>
</body>
</html>

Here's what it supposed to look like got it from the tutorial

JavaScript is case sensitive. It's document.write, not document.Write

No need to get frustrated, it could be that you are doing multiple things wrong (which you are). I only pointed out the one that jumped out at me right away, I didn't know you had 2 things wrong.

It is not GMTString(), it is toGMTString(). You might also want to make it so that any scripting errors show an error dialog.

now = new Date();
localtime = now.toString();
utctime = now.toGMTString();
document.write ("<b>localtime</b>" + localtime + "</br>");
document.write("<b>utctime</b>" + utctime);
</script>
</p>
</body>

Thank you from now on I'm using Dreamweaver CS.5 because it error check everything for and makes work much easier, it all started when I put your example into Dreamweaver and it work from there I was able to understand what I made a mistake on. I'm using Dreamweaver from now on.
