    JavaScript: Format Date/Time [Resolved]

    I need to format a date/time stamp in one of my pages in my
    robohelp help file. It supports Javascript so I modified the page
    code, but ran accross a issue where I need to format this stamp
    with "MM-DD-YY_H-MM-SS". I want this to be dynamic so when
    the user clicks the help page the current date and time will be
    displayed and formatted. I am having trouble with single digit
    values. I need double digits for all values. Here is what I have so
    far...

    Code:
      <SCRIPT LANGUAGE="javascript">
        function FormatDate() {
          RightNow = new Date();
          RightNow.getMonth()+1 + "-" + RightNow.getDate() + "-" + RightNow.getFullYear()
          return true;
        }
        
        function FormatTime() {
          RightNow = new Date();
          RightNow.getHours() + "-" + RightNow.getMinutes() + "-" + RightNow.getSeconds();
          return true;
        }
    
        function FormatStamp() {
          RightNow = FormatDate(); + "_" + FormatTime();
          return true;
        }
      </SCRIPT>
    How do I pass the values back and in the required format?

    Thanks for any help.
