Originally, I was going to post a question about how to condense four repetitive functions into a single function, but I wound up figuring it out myself before I could even post it.However, the original idea that I had was to break down some of the repetitive sections into their own function and use those new sub-functions as part of the main one. I'm still not sure how I would have been able to make that work if I hadn't figured out the bigger picture.function GetClock(){    var d=new Date().addHours(1);    var nday=d.getDay(),nmonth=d.getMonth(),ndate=d.getDate(),nyear=d.getYear();    if(nyear<1000) nyear+=1900;    var nhour=d.getHours(),nmin=d.getMinutes(),nsec=d.getSeconds(),ap;    if(nhour===0){ap= ;nhour=12;}    else if(nhour<12){ap= ;}    else if(nhour===12){ap= ;}    else if(nhour>12){ap= ;nhour-=12;}    if(nhour<=9) nhour=0+nhour;    if(nmin<=9) nmin=0+nmin;    if(nsec<=9) nsec=0+nsec;    document.getElementById('clockbox').innerHTML=+tday[nday]+, +tmonth[nmonth]+ +ndate+, +nyear+ +nhour+:+nmin+:+nsec+<span class='ampm'>+ap+</span>;}This is one of the sections that I was originally thinking about splitting off into its own function: if(nhour===0){ap= ;nhour=12;}else if(nhour<12){ap= ;}else if(nhour===12){ap= ;}else if(nhour>12){ap= ;nhour-=12;}These were my two feeble attempts to make it work: function ampm() {    if(nhour===0){ap= ;nhour=12;}    else if(nhour<12){ap= ;}    else if(nhour===12){ap= ;}    else if(nhour>12){ap= ;nhour-=12;}}And then this: function ampm(nhr,ampm) {    if(nhr===0){ampm= ;nhr=12;}    else if(nhr<12){ampm= ;}    else if(nhr===12){ampm= ;}    else if(nhr>12){ampm= ;nhr-=12;}}But they both failed due to (what I'm assuming are) issues with scope that I'm not sure how to solve.
