display current date and time in header

How would I go about displaying the current time and date in my site's header?

I haven't found any information on the topic.

Thank you.

try this another way...

Is there a way to have the current date and time posted on a page?

I am not too concerned which area of the page it needed to be, it would just be nice if the current date and time were included when a page on the site was downloaded.

Use PHP to display date and time

Any objection to doing it via PHP? A little Googling turns up any number of how-tos, like this simple one:
http://www.totallyphp.co.uk/code/display_date_and_time_with_php.htm

I just gave that one a shot on my site, and wrote up the process a bit, at http://www.drupalace.com/questions/how_display_date_and_time . No fancy options, just date and time, but is it on the right track for you?

Works beautifully.

I shortened up the code to only display the date, until I fugre how to account for time zones. But until then, this gets me there ;)

Thanks!
