You can't make them from html. If you have a crappy free host like geoshities or angelshite then you will have to use javascript but they only appear in the status bar. For the best clocks, use php or perl or even better Flash.

Err, no. Not true. Have a look at this example I just knocked together. And before there are any quips at how this looks in Netscape, it's just an example!

This guy's talking about a clock. At best (without refreshing the page regularly, at least) you can print the date and time. Fine if you're looking to log something, or print the date from a specific offset from GMT, but not very dynamic (and certainly not what you'd expect from a clock - clocks tick over, they don't stay put (unless they're broken)).
or even better Flash.
And by using flash, you'd presumably be using its actionscripting, which is loosely based on JavaScript - another example of use outside the status bar :0)

Don't listen to S-F.
Here's how you can do it with JavaScript:
function SystemClock() {
var time=new Date()
var x=time
var y=x.getDate(); (y<10) ? y="0"+y : y
var z=x.getYear(); (z>70 && z<=99) ? z="19"+z : z="20"+z
var hs=x.getHours(); (hs<10) ? hs="0"+hs : hs
var ms=x.getMinutes();(ms<10) ? ms="0"+ms : ms
var ss=x.getSeconds();(ss<10) ? ss="0"+ss : ss
ST=days[x.getDay()]+", "+y+" "+months[x.getMonth()]+" "+z+" "+hs+":"+ms+":"+ss;
document.clockForm.digits.value=ST+" "+"YST";
id=setTimeout("SystemClock()",1000)
}
call SystemClock() function in the BODY's onLoad() method.
and if you have a FORM named 'clockForm' with an element named 'digits', then the time should show up in there.
