digitalgod Posted July 15, 2006 Share Posted July 15, 2006 hey guys,I've been trying to make a countdown timer to a specific time for everyday but so far I've been unsucessful, all I was able to accomplish is making a normal timer.I need a script that can count down how much time there's left before it's 9pm and as soon as it's done it start all over again...

nogray Posted July 17, 2006 Share Posted July 17, 2006 something like this will help[code]<body onload="show_time();"><script language="javascript"> function show_time(){ var today = new Date(); var time_dif = ""; if (today.getHours() > 8) var odt = new Date(today.getFullYear(), today.getMonth(), today.getDate()+1, 9, 0, 0); else var odt = new Date(today.getFullYear(), today.getMonth(), today.getDate(), 9, 0, 0); var d_time = odt.getTime() - today.getTime(); var f_minutes = (d_time/1000)/60; var i_minutes = Math.floor(f_minutes); var seconds = parseInt((f_minutes - i_minutes) * 60); var f_hours = i_minutes / 60; var i_hours = Math.floor(f_hours); var minutes = parseInt((f_hours - i_hours) * 60); if (i_hours > 0) time_dif = i_hours + " hours, "; if (minutes > 0) time_dif += minutes + " minutes "; if (seconds > 0) time_dif += "and " + seconds + " seconds "; time_dif += "until " + odt; document.getElementById('time_div').innerHTML = time_dif; } setInterval("show_time()", 1000);</script><div id="time_div"></div></body>[/code] Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/14637-countdown-timer-help/#findComment-59479 Share on other sites More sharing options...
digitalgod Posted July 17, 2006 Author Share Posted July 17, 2006 thanks nogray but for some reason it keeps giving me the countdown for the day after, like right now it's almost 4pm and it tells me that there's 17 hours left before 9pm...I can't seem to find what to change though... any clues?

nogray Posted July 17, 2006 Share Posted July 17, 2006 I set it up for 9am, you can change it to 9 bm by changing the 9 to 21 (military time) and the 8 to 20 Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/14637-countdown-timer-help/#findComment-59635 Share on other sites More sharing options...
