Nhoj Posted October 21, 2006 Share Posted October 21, 2006 I have a value stored in the database as seconds until something happens and I was wondering how I'd make a countdown that counts down starting from that number of seconds and going to zero.Basically I want it to pull something like 3600 for 1 hour and countdown to 0. The part I can't figure out how to do though is make it count down based on just seconds, I have an older script that does what I need but it does it based on a date / time, i.e. Jan, 1st, 2006 5:00 AM, this worked but was a little fudged when people were in different timezones.I also need it to display in the format '00:00:00' (hh:mm:ss) and be able to countdown a maximum of 172800 seconds (48 hours). When it hits zero I also need it to show 00:00:00 instead of counting in the negatives.I'd prefer if the javascript simply updated a <span id=clock>[clock]</span> kind of thing, or even a div.I'm not too picky.....a disabled form input box would also work.If anyone can help I appreciate it and thanks in advance ;D Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/24632-countdown-timer-based-on-seconds-not-a-specific-date/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
