This is the script we used. First, this in the HEAD:
<![CDATA[
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
<!--
function function1() {
var dToday = new Date()
var nHours = dToday.getHours()
var nDay = dToday.getDay()
if ((nDay == 5) && (nHours >= 12)) {
alert("Thank God it's Friday afternoon" )
}
else {
if ((nDay == 6) || (nDay == 0) ) {
alert("Hey, it's the weekend" )
}
else {
alert("Just another day")
}
}
}
//-->
</SCRIPT>

With this button:
<![CDATA[
<form>
<input type="button" value="What day is it?" onclick="function1()">
