D Correct answer
Explanation

Pure HTML without JavaScript cannot dynamically display or manipulate client-side data like the current time. HTML can embed objects from other sites (iframe element), auto-refresh (meta http-equiv='refresh'), and auto-redirect (meta refresh), but displaying the client's current time requires client-side scripting like JavaScript.
