Hi, i'm learning javascript, and a practice excerise I'm trying to do won't work for me. Any help would be great!

Code:

<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
function Clock(hour, mins, sec, ampm) {
	this.hour=hour;
	this.mins=mins;
	this.sec=sec;
	this.ampm=ampm;
	this.showTime=showTime();
}

function showTime() {
	with(this){
	document.write("In military time, the time is: " + Clock.hour + ":" + Clock.mins + ":" + Clock.sec);
}
}

</script>
</head>
<body>

<script type="text/javascript">
var hour=-1;
do{
hour=prompt("Please enter the hour");
}
while(isNaN(hour) || hour<1 || hour>12);

var mins=-1;
do{
mins=prompt("Please enter the mintues");
}
while(isNaN(mins) || mins<0 || mins>60);

var sec=-1;
do{
sec=prompt("Please enter the seconds");
}
while(isNaN(sec) || sec<0 || sec>60);


var ampm=-1;
do{
ampm=prompt("Please enter the am or pm");
if(ampm=="PM" || ampm=="Pm" || ampm=="pM" || ampm=="pm"){
    parseInt(hour);
	hour= hour +12;}
}
while(ampm != "am" && ampm != "pm");

var clock=new Clock(hour, mins, sec, ampm);
clock.showTime;

</script>
</body>
</html>

May be if you use this current time javascript will work.
