Super simplified version:

<head>

function plugTime(){

t = new Date()

//format how you like

document.form1.timeField.value = t
}

</head>

<body onload = "plugTime()">
...
<form name = 'form1'>
<input type="text" name = "timeField" value ="">
</form>
...
</script>

<table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
	<tr>
		<td>	<input	type="text" 
				name="thedate" 
				size="11" 
				maxlength="10" 
				style="background:#cccccc; color:#000000; border style:1px solid #666666; text-align:center; font-weight:normal; font-size:12px" 
			>
			</input>
		</td>
	</tr>
	<tr>
		<td>	<input	type="text" 
				name="time" 
				size="11" 
				maxlength="11" 
				style="background:#cccccc; color:#000000; border style:1px solid #666666; text-align:center; font-weight:normal; font-size:12px"
			>
			</input>
		</td>
	</tr>
</table>
</form>

<script language="javascript">
<!--
function showdate(){
	var thedate=new Date();
	var mymonth=thedate.getMonth()+1;
	var mydate=thedate.getDate();
	var myyear=thedate.getFullYear();
		if(mymonth<10){
			mymonth="0"+mymonth;
		}
		if(mydate<10){
			mydate="0"+mydate;
		}
	mynewdate=mymonth+"/"+mydate+"/"+myyear;
	var thefield=document.myform.thedate;
	thefield.value=mynewdate;
	thefield.blur();
	setTimeout("showdate()",1000);
}
showdate()
// -->
</script>

<script>
<!--

		}
	mynewtime=myhours+":"+myminutes+":"+myseconds+" "+meridian;
	var thefield=document.myform.time;
