I'm looking for a javascript that will do a 3 minute countdown and display it on the screen, preferably not in a textbox, but i'm not picky.
Here is how it works. Someone will make a selection from a form. The date/time of that selection is then stored in a database. I want to use the date time stored in the database as my starting time and then countdown 3 minutes. After 3 minutes I would like a message saying Times Up, please make a selection.
All I need is a simple countdown clock where I can input a random total number of seconds from a variable and it will display a countdown containing days, hours, minutes and seconds.
For example:
input: 95500 seconds
Output: 1d 2h 31m 40s
I would like this to be like a live "ticker" so the clock goes down without having to reload the page.
Let me know if this can be done.
I found the below script that works fine for the actual countdown, but when the user refreshes the page, the countdown starts from 5 minutes again.
What I am trying to do, is handle users that put something in their shopping cart and then get side tracked or what ever reason and that same product then being purchased by another person when I only have 1 left.
So using PHP I am going to subtract the qty of that product by 1 and then I want the website to either put it back, if the users checkout times out, or if a normal process it is taken out permanently.
So long story short I think I need some sort of 'memory' for the javascript, so the user can't just keep refreshing and it starting from 5 minutes each time. Also it needs to be carried through to other pages.
I'm really struggling to write a bit of JS that displays the amount of time left to when your order will be shipped.For Example: If it's
1:05pm on Sunday, it would say: "Place your order within the next 1 day 2 hours 55 minutes and your order will ship Monday"
Another example: If it's 2:00pm on Saturday, it would say: "Place your order within the next 2 hours and your order will ship today"
I need to be able to change the cut off point from 4pm if needed...It must also ignore bank holiday (Ideally, it would have a section in the code where I could put all 'excluded' dates, e.g. 12/25/2009, 01/01/2010, etc. - This way I could keep it up to date).The code must take into account that we only deliver Monday to Friday (Therefore on a Friday after 4pm, it would not say delivery tomorrow, but Monday).Once the deadline hits (4pm), the countdown jumps back up to accommodate tomorrow's deadline, etc.Amazon does a very similar thing,
Im putting together a pair of countdown timers that need to restart every 24 hours. One restarts at noon and the other at midnight. Im using Keith Woods plugin @ [URL]
So far I have been able to implement his serverTime function to sync to the servers clock and instantiated 2 countdown timers. so far so good.
What I need to do now is 2 things:
1. I need to define today + X hours to countdown to instead of setting a exact date like in this example:
var noonCountDown = new Date();
noonCountDown = new Date(noonCountDown.getFullYear() + 0, 5 - 1, 28, -12);// 2011, May, 28, 12pm
2. Once today is defined dynamically I believe that may just solve the problem and reset the timer. But I may not be thinking clearly here. So I guess Im just wondering if this is how you would go about making the countdown restart upon completion.
Here is my code that Ive got so far:
$(function () {
function serverTime() {
var time = null;
$.ajax({url: 'http://www.localhost.com/projects/countdown/servertime.php',

I'm using a javascript-based countdown timer that currently uses the client's system time to calculate the countdown. I assume that this line of code is where this is performed:
Code:
I'm trying to make the script use server time instead as some people may have wrong dates/times set or live in different time zones etc.
So what I did was use a bit of php:
PHP Code:
This gives a result but now the countdown is 30 days off. I am testing on my local xampp server (which also uses system time) so there should be no discrepancy. I also tried adding
Code:
But no difference.
I can post the whole script if required but it is reasonably long.
I'm making an additional page for a phpbb forum for a game. On the page there's 2 textareas to paste in a list of coordinates from a map and then the time it takes to get from each of the coordinates in the left box to each of the coordinates in the right box is calculates and shown in a table. Also is a date/time input, where the user will pick the desired time of arrival. I have this all calculating the times etc. but I would like in one of the columns for it to have a real-time counter that will count down the time before they need to start on the trip in order to arrive at the desired time. I am having a nightmare of a time with this. Here's the script
<!-- INCLUDE overall_header.html -->
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
function timeLeft(now, next)

I'm using a countdown timer in a student project, and I use a simple code that I find on google. My problem is when the clock ends at 0 min 0 sec, it continue with the count. I want to stop when reach 0 min 0 sec. I show you the code.

I would like a counter/timer that will show in textboxes the time left to Saturday 07:00. When it reaches zero it should reset and calculate the time until the next Saturday 07:00, 4 weeks ahead...
Ex. next saturday is 19.3, when it resets it should set the timer to calculate the time to 16.4. 07:00, and when it resets again it should calculate the time to 14.4. 07:00. I hope you understand.
I know nothing about javascript, so i was wondering if anyone had any direct links to a pre-existing countdown timer
Bascially i would like it to countdown to midnight (based on users time zone) and then simply reset itself after midnight...
I am looking for a simple countdown clock that displays a countdown in days, hours, minutes and seconds. I do have one on my sites's CPanel, but I don't really like the look of it. I'm not really looking for anything specific, if it looks good then I'll use it.
I wondered if anyone knows where I can get a countdown clock from?

This is the script to hide the div (adsdiv)Its working on all browser except IE
<script type="text/javascript">
function closeMyAd() {
document.getElementById("adsdiv").style.display = "none" ;

<div id = "adsdiv">This ad will close in
<span id = "closingtimer">31</span>

I need to reverse the script to show a div after 30 seconds, not to hide it.
Trying to write a javascript countdown script. Here's what I got:
function timer(position,count)
{
var newCount
if (position == 'start') {
document.getElementById("timer").innerHTML=count
newCount = count - 1
alert(newCount);
setTimeout("timer('go',newCount)",1000)
}
if (position == 'go') {
document.getElementById("timer").innerHTML=count
} }
</script>
</head>
<body onload="timer('start',10);">
onload starts the timer at 10 and then my first step was to have to go down to 9. But I get this javascript error message: Error: newCount is not defined
But I have it as an alert right before I call it and it alerts the variable just fine. Why would it say it isnt defined?
I am trying to get a script to write a countdown (5, 4, 3, 2, 1, etc. replacing the previous number, i've seen it done, just can't get it to work myself). I am running this in a PHP page. Code:
View 3 Replies View RelatedInstead of a countdown and then redirect, I would like to countdown and unhide. I have used java before as a novice, but javascript looks like a relatively new beast for me. I found this counter and think it looks good, I guess it just resents the next smallest digit each time it reaches one. Is there some way to maybe make this a subclass of something that goes:
if 0.0, then unhide, else hide. What tags would I have to give the div on my style sheet. Or maybe there is a better way to write the countdown from 15 (or x) seconds.
