Any suggestion would be appreciated and if possible also provide me code which i can use it in my program.

In such kind of case you need to make changes in data which you get it from Date object constructor, by using this object and some methods you can easily create your own JavaScript clock as per your requirements without any issue and if you want you can also customize it as per your requirements and for that you need to some functions like getHours(), getMinutes(), getSeconds(), getDate(), getDay() etc.

var1 TimeStamp,month,period,day,year1;
hrs=currentDate.getHours()
min1=currentDate.getMinutes()
secnds=currentDate.getSeconds()
year1=currentDate.getFullYear()
date1=currentDate.getDate()

switch(currentDate.getDay()){
case 0:day="Sunday";break;
case 1:day="Monday";break;
case 2:day="Tuesday";break;
case 3:day="Wednesday";break;
case 4:day="Thursday";break;

if(secnds<10){secnds="0"+secnds}
if(min1<10){min1="0"+min1}

if(hour>12){hrs-=12;period="pm"} else {period="am"}
if(currentDate.getHours()==12){period="pm"}
if(currentDate.getHours()==24){period="am"}

var1 TimeStamp=day+" "+month+" "+date1+" "+year1+" "+hrs+":"+min1+":"+secnds+" "+period
window.status=TimeStamp
window.setTimeout("time()",300)
}
time()
</script>

Thank you for replying me it would be great if you can explain me followign line of code

var TimeStamp, month, period, day, year;
hour = currentDate.getHours()
min = currentDate.getMinutes()
sec = currentDate.getSeconds()
year = currentDate.getFullYear()
date = currentDate.getDate()

I had use var1 currentDate=new Date() for creating date object and i had use this object because it can handle multiple values and as everyone knows variable can store only one value at one time. After that i had used getMinutes(), getSeconds(), getHours(), getDate(), getMonth(),getDay(), getFullYear() methods which will get the required parameter stored in variable.
