Change HTML content in your HTML by comparing expiration dates. I needed code to update ads on my site. Ads had an expiration dates so this is what I used.

Copy this code and paste it in your HTML 
  1. var now = new Date();
  2. 	var year, month, day, mins, sec;
  3.  
  4. 		//get the current date          //add a zero for single digit values
  5. 		year    = now.getFullYear();    if (year < 1000) {year +- 1900;}
  6. 		month   = now.getMonth() + 1;   if (month < 10) {month = "0" + month;}
  7. 		day     = now.getDate();        if (day < 10) {day = "0" + day;}
  8. 		hrs     = now.getHours();       if (hrs < 10) {day = "0" + hrs;}
  9. 		mins    = now.getMinutes();     if (mins < 10) {mins = "0" + mins;}
  10. 		sec     = now.getSeconds();     if (sec < 10) {sec = "0" + sec;}
  11.  
  12. 	//concatenate the dates into a string
  13. 	var current	= String(year) + String(month) + String(day) + String(hrs) + String(mins) + String(sec);
  14. 	//convert current time(string) to a number to compare values
  15. 	var curr	= Number(current);
  16.  
  17. 	// dates represent expiration dates (YYYY MM DD HH MM SS)
  18. 	var A	= 20101203160800;
  19. 	var B	= 20101203161400;
  20. 	var C	= 20101203152900;
  21.  
  22. 	if (A > curr) {
  23. 		$('#status').html('This is A');
  24. 	}
  25. 	else if (B > curr) {
  26. 		$('#status').html('This is B');
  27. 	}
  28. 	else if (C > curr) {
  29. 		$('#status').html('This is C');
  30. 	}
  31. 	else {
  32. 		$('#status').html('Everything Has Expired');
  33. 	}
