Countdown Block

[Xarcell]

I found a script here:

http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex6/dhtmlcount.htm

It's javascript, but it works very well and is customizable. Just place it in a javascript/html block.

I use Dynamic Drive all the time for my site. It's a very good resource, and if you ever need a DHTML script, it should be the first place you look. Right now I'm using the countdown script for the time until Christmas day.

Hey man

I am having problems with mine it doesn't countdown correctly ie it is looking at some current time that is 8 hours ahead.  Do you have a fix on this?
Thanks

it is probably using your server time rather than your board time...

Sorted now thank you

What if your visitor is from down under?

Funny you should bring that up.  One of my mods is from Sidney

That might not be too nice - advertising your impending warm weather while theirs is getting colder.

Oh, never mind - I am in Phoenix - we like to rub it in every December, when it is freezing in Queens and broiling in Queensland.

Springlike weather for much of the year does that.......

Sadly that is about the most confusing set of codes I've ever seen

I was hoping to install a countdown timer that would automatically reset each week.  After looking at their codes I decided I was no match for them and manually editing the dates every week would be too time consuming.  Does anyone have any ideas how to create a weekly countdown timer?  Either using these codes or perhaps using another countown timer?  If so I would be much appreciative.
