Xmas Countdown with Snow Block

[akulion]

By the way for the Big Xmas block, just download the file linked to under the block on the demo page

upload the files to your forum root

then put this in a PHP block:

Code Select Expand


include "12x.php";


thats it

Aku... thanks a lot for this block but Xmas is finished already. Do you have something for New year?

[akulion]

well this block can be configured for new year very easily

do this:

open up the PHP file in the package

Then find:

Code Select Expand


<tr><td bgcolor="#99CCFF"><center><font size="1" face="Verdana">Christmas Countdown</font></center></td></tr>


change the christmas to new year

find:

Code Select Expand


<param name="grph" value="christmas25.jpg">


change over for a new year image of ur choice

find:

Code Select Expand


var futuredate=new cdtime("countdowncontainer", "December 25, 2006 00:00:00")

change the date to December 21, 2006 23:59:59
so that should be 1 sec b4 new year or u can set it 1 min after if u want

and thenfinally find:

Code Select Expand


function formatresults(){
if (this.timesup==false){//if target date/time not yet met
var displaystring=arguments[0]+" days "+arguments[1]+" hours <br>"+arguments[2]+" minutes "+arguments[3]+" seconds<br> left until Christmas"
}

and change the left until Christmas to left until new year

and thats all really
