    Arrow Wanted: Simple Countdown Timer Code

    Hi there

    I am just wondering if anyone is able to provide me with the code (PHP or HTML) for a text countdown timer.

    The text will simply be:



    ? days, ? hours, ? minutes, and ? seconds until ....




    I would prefer that the numbers (?) actually count down on the page (PHP?), or if they only give a value at the time the page is loaded (HTML?).

    I have tried for the last hour to get one going, and I have, but it gives errors (java errrors).

    Thanks for any help!

    Blazed, were you using the java counter provided with cPanel? I'm using that one, right now, at areahotspot.com ... you can see if your code is formatted similarly like mine.

    No I'm not, I wasn't aware of it.

    In any event I am removing cpanel from my server, and so will need a stand alone solution.

    Cheers for the reply.

    Yeah like that except without the box and all the same font.

    @ Edder - that is too complicated, and I couldnt get it to produce simple text.

    I know this code must be very easy!

    var counter = setTimeout("countdown()", 1500-today.getTime()%1000)

    Re: Wanted: Simple Countdown Timer Code

    Cheers everyone -especially Mr Domains for writing that for me.

    I gave it a shot, but I already have some javascript for other stuff in my header, and everytime I try a method like above, that involves adding more javascript to my header - it never works.

    I will try and figure it out, but dont expect much luck. I think it is this new javascript conflicting with the stuff already there? Because the timer just comes up blank

    Re: Wanted: Simple Countdown Timer Code

    what is your BODY tag?
    it should initiate the countdown, sounds like you might have missed that part out.

    <BODY onLoad = "countdown()">
