I am having some serious trouble figuring out how to calculate the name of the day. I want the script to say if today = Monday then..., else then...

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Ok, now here's my problem. The darn thing still says "Friday" from when I created the field. Its global, but it doesn't want to update based on the current date. Ideas?
