When I load my page, no clock appears no matter what I do. I have created two buttons. If I remove the button which refers to the stopTime() function which contains clearTimeout(t); then my clock appears. If I put the button back my clock won’t work.

<body onload="getTime()">


  <script>

  var t;

  function getTime() 
  {  
     var time = new Date();

     var hour = time.getHours();
     var minute = time.getMinutes();
     var second = time.getSeconds(); 

     hour = checkTime(hour);
     minute = checkTime(minute);
     second = checkTime(second);

     var actualtime = hour + ":" + minute + ":" + second;

     document.getElementById("time").innerHTML = actualtime;

     t = setTimeout(function(){getTime()},1000);
  }

  function checkTime(i)
  {
      if ( i < 10 )
          i = "0" + i;
      return i;
  }

  function stopTime();
  {
      clearTimeout(t);
  }

  </script>


</body>

</html>

Thanks in advance!

    You have a syntax error here:

    function stopTime();
{
    clearTimeout(t);
}

    Take out the ; at the end of your function stopTime().

    Fixing that, your code runs fine for me.
