Protected Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load
    ' STANDARD TIME example:
    Body.Attributes.Add("onload", "displayDate('" & Format(Now(), "hh:mm:ss tt") & "');")

    ' MILITARY TIME example:
    Body.Attributes.Add("onload", "displayDate('" & Format(Now(), "HH:mm:ss") & "');")
End Sub

I assumed VB as you have not specified a language you're using. you can use it in your button click event with other languages like C# too. Note that my <body> tag has id="Body" and runat="server"

If you're handling the button's click event on the server then you can just call DateTime.Now and it will return the server's time (since the code is executed on the server).

DateTime now = DateTime.Now;
