Im working on a website, and between the hours of 9:00 and 24:00, the business is open. During those hours, i want a line of text to say "Store is currently open" but during 0:00 - 8:59, i want the line of text to say "Store is closed".

  • Between 0900 and 2400 where? Where you are? Where your server is? Where your customer is? All of the above? None of the above? –  Jan 20 '15 at 01:33

Simply use Moment.js. If you're only targetting local users you don't even have to worry about time-zone differences. Otherwise you can always specify a timezone to use, simply see the docs.

var now = moment();
var status = (now.isAfter(moment('09:00', 'hh:mm')) && now.isBefore(moment('21:00', 'hh:mm'))) ? 'open' : 'closed';

var d = document.createElement("span");
d.appendChild(document.createTextNode("the time is now " + moment().format('hh:mm') + ". pool's " + status + "."));
document.body.appendChild(d);
