Too short

Comments:
The response is not entirely accurate. <%= Time() or Now() or Date()%> will give the client side the servers date/time.

Comments:
You can use Server Side Includes to stuff hidden form variables with the server date and time; then use Javascript to work with the values.

Example code:

<form name="server_time_local">
<input type="hidden" name="year" value="">
</form>

<script language="JavaScript">

var year, month, day, hour, minute

t_form = document.forms["server_time_local"];

year = Number(t_form.year.value);
month = Number(t_form.month.value);
day = Number(t_form.day.value);
hour = Number(t_form.hour.value);
minute = Number(t_form.minute.value);

}
