load php file on load with jQuery

Question

I have a simple php file that prints the date and time. I would like to load this file with jQuery so it shows the $date variable. Can't seem see why this is not working, any advice on why?

My php file:

<?php
date_default_timezone_set('GMT');

$date = date('d/m/Y H:i:s');

print $date;?>

My on page code:

<script>$(document).load(function(){
    $('#time').load('http://www.my-website.co.uk/my-php-file.php');});</script>
<div id="time"></div>

Answer 2

I would remove the print... line from the php file, include the php file in your HTML page and add an echo for the $datevariable after the include line (i.e. no jquery at all):

<div id="time">
  <?php 
    include "http://www.my-website.co.uk/my-php-file.php";
    echo $date;
  ?>
</div>
