Downloading a Clock Program

I am trying to download a small (Calvin 500) birthday countdown clock. However, when I copy and paste the details in the box to the right of the small clock, all I get is the wording not the clock! What am I doing wrong?Susan Keenan

I am going to review a few points about downloading clock programs onto websites. Use the information as best that you can. 

What is a Clock Program?

Clock programs offer the opportunity to add customizable features to your computer desktop or website. Each program offers a variety of options that will allow you to do quite a few functions including synchronizing your clock to managing time to setting an alarm to logging time to even more.

Calvin 500 Clock Download

One possibility is that you are missing some of the text that you need in order to download the Calvin 500 clock. There are 20 lines of text in the box for the small clock. Are you sure that you have included all of the lines when copying and pasting it?

Copying and Pasting Code

Downloading the Calvin 500 clock program involves the copying and pasting of code. In many cases, all it takes is a simple bit of flexing with the fingertips to copy and paste. However, even though it might seem as though it should all go smoothly, you need to paste the data in the correct location on the website where you are placing it. Have you checked that you are doing so? Plus, the website where you are pasting the data must accommodate this type of function.

Additionally, it is important that you select the right option when copying and pasting data. For example, if you are trying to paste the code into your MySpace page, then you must select the option for pasting code rather than the option for pasting text. This function is similar on many websites.

In many cases, you can use a WYSIWYG editor in order to paste the code onto your page. Examples of this type of editor include DreamWeaver and FrontPage. Are you using an editor or other app such as the Yahoo Widget Editor?

Additional Troubleshooting

If the problem persists and none of the above solutions have helped, then you might want to consider the possibility that the code has an imperfection. Try the code for the larger clock and see if you can get that to work. Alternatively, you can also contact the website about the problem.
