Can you get the value of the span, parse it, and add 12 to the hour value?

Since you can already remove the am/pm I'll assume you have the correct jQuery to find and manipulate the content. Since it is a string you'll need to do some playing with it to get the time and manipulate it, something like this should do it for you

1. var theTimeArr = $(".ai1ec-event-time").text().split(":");
2. var theTime = parseInt(theTimeArr[0]);
3. if (theTime < 13) {
4.       theTime += 12;
5. } else {
6.       theTime -= 12;
7. }
8. alert(theTime);

This assumes that the value in the span is always valid though since there is no error checking in it

Did you check my jsfiddle at

Check out the fiddle queryj  posted it shows exactly how to do it. You just want to use the text() method to swap out the text. In fact his example is better than mine as it takes into account minutes, where mine just assumed they were always 00

Never mind, fixed it! 

Okay do you know how I can fix that? 

If you only need to change one of them the best way to do it would be to add an id to the element and use that instead of the class name. Or you could add another class to it so it is the only one with that class and use the new class.
