I'm using javascriptto get the date on an htmlpage, but the page gets the date from the computer. I want the page to display the correct date, even if the one on the computer is wrong. Currently I'm using this:

var now2 = new Date();

For example, if the date were set to July 28th 14:00 on the computer, I still want the page to say December 5th 15:52.
