     {
              self.setInterval("clock()",1000);  
              $("button").click(function()  
              {  
                     clock;  
              });  
              function clock()  
              {
                   clock();  
                   time=new Date();  
                   var s = "<p>" + time + "</p>";

              }  
     });  

<button > Click Me button  </div>
<div id="someid"></div>

Answer 1

$("button").click(function() should be either $("#button").click(function() or $(".button").click(function() depending on whether you are using the id or the class name.

if you are attaching to all buttons then $("input:button").click(function() will work I think.

Also what is $(s).appendTo("div"); meant to be doing?

Need more info on what is not working and what you want to achieve.

edit

$(s).appendTo("div");

should be $('#someid').append(s); I think or $(s).appendTo('#someid');
