Re: FLASH: Counter / Countdown

[2Nerotik]

I use a JavaScript that will countup or down depending on which way you

want it to go.


It's still available for download @ 

http://www.nisa.net/~2nerotik/JavaScripts/CountDown.zip


You can take a look at http://www.nisa.net/~2nerotik/ to see it counting 

up. The zipped

up version I believe counts down.


All you need to do is set the date it should count from.


If you wish to change the script to count up/down you just need to

switch (todaystring) with (futurestring) around.


dd=Date.parse(todaystring)-Date.parse(futurestring)


To integrate into Flash... well that's up to you as I haven't yet needed 

to, so haven't

tried to yet.
