It seems like outdated copyright tags in the footer of Websites are becoming an increasing issue online. Here are a couple of basic ways to make the tag dynamic to always display the correct information and updated year.
1. JavaScript (Current Year)
2. JavaScript (Original Year – Current Year)
2009-
3. PHP (Current Year)
< ?php echo "© ".date("Y"); ?>
4. PHP (Original Year – Current Year)
2009-< ?php echo "© ".date("Y"); ?>
With a little script implementation, everyone can keep their copyright tags up to date and avoid any unnecessary embarrassment.
