Scheduled Content

[MoscowModder]

Hello, I would like to find/make a JavaScript that loads content based on week of the year. Is that possible? Each piece of content is just a couple lines of text so it would be nice to keep it all in the same file. The script should check what week it is and display the content on a repeating annual schedule.

Is this possible? If you have any suggestions/scripts/ideas please tell me!

It must be JavaScript. I use .Mac/MobileMe web hosting and I don't think it does PHP.

It depends how you define the week number, some years have 52 weeks, some have 53 and not all countries count them in the same way. Here are some scripts that calculate the week number in different ways:

Thanks! I can add an iframe with a custom page (iWeb doesn't want me to tweak the head), and have it show a div with the id matching the week number. Right?

Yeah, I guess so. If you encounter any problems you can always come back here.

It has worked so far, but what I want it to do is show a <div> with the id matching the week number. Firebug tells me that "contentDiv is null". My code is this:

function showContent(){

//Get the week number
var divNumber = getWeek(y2k(now.getYear()),now.getMonth(),now.getDate());

//Specify the container
var contentDiv = document.getElementById(divNumber);

//Show the container
contentDiv.style.display='inline';
}

And later in the Body:

<script>showContent();</script>

I clearly defined contentDiv as you can see, but it simply doesn't work. Any suggestions?
