JavaScript - Need Help With A Countdown Not Working
Hey guys/gals, I have a code working great, all except that I want it to start a 36 hour countdown and do it forever after the initial timer hits 0. Here's what I have so far:
PHP Code: <html> <body> <center> <div style="width:1000px;height:65px;border:3px outset blue;"> <a href="http://s260.photobucket.com/albums/ii17/zynner/?action=view¤t=Aetherite_Icon.png" target="_blank"><img src="http://i260.photobucket.com/albums/ii17/zynner/Aetherite_Icon.png" border="0" alt="Aetherite"></a> <sup><big><b>Guildleves Will Reset In: <script type = "text/javascript"> dateFuture = new Date(2010,9,5,22,10,30); //you can adjust this if a server reset changes leve times. function GetCount(){ dateNow = new Date(); amount = dateFuture.getTime() - dateNow.getTime(); delete dateNow; if(amount < 0){ This is where i think the loop should be, yes? If so, how can I countdown 36 hours over and over? } else{ days=0;hours=0;mins=0;secs=0;out=""; amount = Math.floor(amount/1000); days=Math.floor(amount/86400); amount=amount%86400; hours=Math.floor(amount/3600); amount=amount%3600; mins=Math.floor(amount/60); amount=amount%60; secs=Math.floor(amount); if(days != 0){out += days +" day"+((days!=1)?"s":"")+", ";} if(days != 0 || hours != 0){out += hours +" hour"+((hours!=1)?"s":"")+", ";} if(days != 0 || hours != 0 || mins != 0){out += mins +" minute"+((mins!=1)?"s":"")+", ";} out += secs +" seconds"; document.getElementById('countbox').innerHTML=out; setTimeout("GetCount()", 1000); } } window.onload=GetCount; </script> <div id="countbox"></div> </sup> </div> </body> </html> Any help I could get would be MUCH appreciated. Similar Tutorialshttp://www.gamesam.com/playgames/920...e-raceway.html (go to that link in IE and the count down is 20secs, after it is finished, it does not show the game. It works in other "Flash" games, but mostly "Shock wave" it does not work properly.) -This is the javascript code that is being used, the php tho is probably not needed to be displayed, its mostly just getting the script to show the "shockwave" game.- Code: <script type="text/javascript"> // Number of seconds to show the ad var counterStart = 20; var showGameLoadedBox = document.getElementById('showGameLoadedBox'); var showGameLoadingBox = document.getElementById('showGameLoadingBox'); var showGameLoadingNumber = document.getElementById('showGameLoadingNumber'); showGameLoadedBox.style.visibility = "hidden"; showGameLoadedBox.style.height = "0px"; showGameLoadingBox.style.visibility = "visible"; showGameLoadingBox.style.height = "<?=$gameheight;?>px"; var countDown = setInterval('countDownLoading()',1000); showGameLoadingNumber.innerHTML = counterStart; function countDownLoading() { if (showGameLoadingNumber.innerHTML > 0) { showGameLoadingNumber.innerHTML = showGameLoadingNumber.innerHTML - 1; } else { clearInterval(countDown); showGameLoadedBox.style.visibility = "visible"; showGameLoadedBox.style.height = "auto"; showGameLoadingBox.style.visibility = "hidden"; <? if (ae_detect_ie()) { echo " showGameLoadingBox.style.height = \"".$gameheight."px\";"; } else { echo " showGameLoadingBox.style.height = \"0px\";"; } ?> showGameLoadingBox.innerHTML = ""; } } </script> -Let me know if you need more info on the code..

I apologise if this question has been asked before, I am banging my head off a wall and am in need of some help. I am trying to find a script (and failed, even on google) to create a countdown timer on a website. The details are : a countdown timer that (a) runs off server time, not client time and (b) resets every 10 minutes. The only example i could give to clear up any questions would be something extremely similar to facebook app games : eg mafia wars etc energy refill timers so people visiting my web page would see a countdown timer that was counting down 10 minutes and then resetting itself, on the hour, 10 past, 20 past etc etc. And also, can the counter trigger a script, orwouldit be best to use a scheduled task for this? I do not want the timer to take the user from the web page. I am not sure of the exact name of a such counter, so maybe thats why google is not giving me the answers i need. Any help would greatly be appreciated. Also I know i maybe need php to run frrom a server time. I can code php half-competently, but javascript is out of my knowledge range at present (although i can usually see code and know how to adapt it to my needs etc) Thankyou to all who can help index.php Code: <a href="#" onClick="getTimer();return false;">Show Timer</a> <br /> <div id="test"></div> getTimer.js Code: function getTimer() { new Ajax.Request('filegoeshere', { onSuccess: function(req) {eval(req.responseText);}, onFailu function(){ alert('Something went wrong...') } }); } timer.php Code: <?php echo "$('test').innerHTML = '<form><input type=\"text\" name=\"timer\" id=\"timer\" size=\"8\" style=\"text-align: center;\" /></form>';"; ?> var seconds= 30 $('timer').value='30' function display() { seconds--; if (seconds<=-1){ seconds=30 } else $('timer').value=seconds; setTimeout("display()",1000) } display() Everything seems to work, but the once the timer is in the input box, after the request, it get's stuck on 29, and will not continue counting down, and I can't seem to get it to work. I am using ProtoType with this, and I did just take that little part out of the index.php file, since that is all that is needed from that file. I'm not sure what im doing wrong here this technique im using works for a different countdown file.

I am trying to create a countdown timer for my functions(Crime, Car Steal and so on) Code: window.setTimeout("Tick()", 1000); function Tick() { window.setTimeout("Tick()", 1000); } var Timer; var TotalSeconds; function CreateTimer(TimerID, Time) { Timer = document.getElementById(TimerID); TotalSeconds = Time; UpdateTimer() window.setTimeout("Tick()", 1000); } function Tick() { TotalSeconds -= 1; UpdateTimer() window.setTimeout("Tick()", 1000); } function UpdateTimer() { Timer.innerHTML = TotalSeconds; } function Tick() { if (TotalSeconds <= 0) { alert("Available") return; } TotalSeconds -= 1; UpdateTimer() window.setTimeout("Tick()", 1000); } function UpdateTimer() { var Seconds = TotalSeconds; var Days = Math.floor(Seconds / 86400); Seconds -= Days * 86400; var Hours = Math.floor(Seconds / 3600); Seconds -= Hours * (3600); var Minutes = Math.floor(Seconds / 60); Seconds -= Minutes * (60); var TimeStr = ((Days > 0) ?

If the start time is 17:45 and the end time is 19:32 (in that format) for example, how would i create a countdown for the time between 17:45 and 19:32. If anyone could point me in the right direction that would be great! thanks Hi everyone, I need a countdown timer that will count down exactly from a time that i set. i want it to count in this format: hh:mm:ss. i need it for a online shop , at the main page there are few products for sell and i want each one of them to have its own countdown timer. in addition when it will get to 00:00:00 i want that it will automatically add like 5 hours and continue counting down.. P.s i dont know javascript.. thanks guys I found this countdown timer online that starts when the page loads at 30 seconds and counts down to zero. What I need for it to do however is once it hits 0 it needs to automatically reset itself back to 30 seconds. It's being used in conjunction with a online (not a chat room) chatterbot where people often abuse the bot with foul language. The idea being to stop them from entering text to the bot for 30 seconds. I'm using these lines in the chatterbot where xxx would be the foul language. The stopTalk part prevents entering text for 30 seconds. The display() triggers the countdown. However, once it hits 0 it's dead in the water. If someone types another bad word the timer isn't going to work. Note: The timer is just a visual diplay so the user can see how long he must wait. The StopTalk below is working fine to stop the user from entering text. That part isn't the problem. Code: if (input.search("xxx")!= -1) {document.result.result.value = "Stop the foul language. You can no longer enter text for 30 seconds"; display() stopTalk = setTimeout('icon.src=icon1.src;stopTalk=false;',30000) return true;} 1) Because this is an online chatterbot that temporarily stores information about the user I can't restart the timer by refreshing the page or I would lose that information. 2) I don't want to use a button to reset the timer. If at all possible I want the timer to reset automatically. Any help would be appreciated. Code: <form name="counter"><input type="text" size="8" name="d2"></form> <script> <!-- // var milisec=0 var seconds=30 document.counter.d2.value='30' function display(){ if (milisec<=0){ milisec=9 seconds-=1 } if (seconds<=-1){ milisec=0 seconds+=1 } else milisec-=1 document.counter.d2.value=seconds+"."+milisec setTimeout("display()",100) } display() --> </script> Hi there, I was looking for a countdown script that counts down starting at a number (50) which starts again once it reaches (0). The count down isnt in seconds, it should be in 10 second increments. This meaning that it starts at 50, and they goes to 49 after 10 seconds.. Can anyone help? I figured if there was one it would be a Javascript but does anyone know of a countdown clock that almost looks like a counter/turnstile number row? Like this sorta: I've been looking for one where I have the numbers look just like that and 'push' upward as the times (days, minutes, seconds) go on. Hopefully someone knows of a script >< Thanks alot!!! Hey all, I'm trying to sort a countdown clock for my website: http://www.cyber-technix.com/corps/index.php/ My vision of it was a transparent background, Blue text and a simple Day : Hour : Minute : Second Layout. I found a free .js countdown clock at http://www.hashemian.com/tools/javascript-countdown.htm Anyone got any better suggestions? I havn't used .js much so I may need some help implementing it if someone would be kind enough to help me out, thanks. 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, can someone tell me what I am doing wrong? Code: <!-- INCLUDE overall_header.html --> <script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript"> function timeLeft(now, next) { var count = next - now; count = count/1000; //change to hours:mins:secs var secs = count % 60; if (secs < 10) secs = '0'+secs; var countdown1 = (count - secs) / 60; var mins = countdown1 % 60; if (mins < 10) mins = '0'+mins; countdown1 = (countdown1 - mins) / 60; var hours = countdown1 % 24; if(hours == 1){htext = " hr, "}else if(hours == 0){hours = "", htext = ""}else{htext = " hrs, "}; if(mins < 2){mtext = " min, "}else{mtext = " mins, "}; if(secs < 2){stext = " sec"}else{stext = " secs"}; document.getElementById('timeLeft').innerHTML = hours+htext+mins+mtext+secs+stext; t=setTimeout('timeLeft()',500); } </script> </head> <body> <table class="borderlist" style="width: 100%; align: center; text-align: center"> <tbody> <tr><td>{MSG}</td></tr> <tr> <td>NOW</td> <td>ID</td> <td>FIELDS</td> <td>TRAVEL_TIME</td> <td>SEND_SECS</td> <td>SEND_TIME</td> <td>TIME_LEFT</td> <td>SEND_IN</td> </tr> <!-- BEGIN times --> <tr> <td>{times.NOW}</td> <td>{times.ID}</td> <td>{times.FIELDS}</td> <td>{times.TRAVEL_TIME}</td> <td>{times.SEND_SECS}</td> <td>{times.SEND_TIME}</td> <td><span id="timeLeft" onload="timeLeft({times.NOW}, {times.SEND_SECS})"></td> <td>{times.SEND_IN}</td> </tr> <!-- END times --> </tbody> </table> </div> <!-- INCLUDE overall_footer.html --> Hi guys, I'm building a page which has a countdown timer on it (days, hours, mins) and I honestly really don't know much about Javascript at all.

The days appear to be displaying correctly, but the hours is showing 3 digits instead of 2 and the mins is showing 5 digits instead of 2: 32 days, 764 hours, 45845 mins Here is the code I'm using: Code: var now = new Date(); var theevent = new Date("June 18 2011 10:00:00"); var seconds = (theevent - now) / 1000; var mins = seconds / 60; var hours = mins / 60; var days = hours / 24; ID=window.setTimeout("update();", 1000); function update() { now = new Date(); seconds = (theevent - now) / 1000; seconds = Math.round(seconds); mins = seconds / 60; mins = Math.round(mins); hours = mins / 60; hours = Math.round(hours); days = hours / 24; days = Math.round(days); document.getElementById('days').innerHTML = days; document.getElementById('hours').innerHTML = hours; document.getElementById('mins').innerHTML = mins; ID=window.setTimeout("update();",1000); } Thanks a bunch in advance... I am making a website and the page is oriented around a countdown system. If the timer ever reaches 0, the whole thing will stop. Below are the specifics: I need a countdown timer that runs from 30 seconds to 0 seconds. If the timer is at 0 seconds, the script runs php code #1 (which makes the timer stop and if any user refreshes the page, it will still stay at zero). There is also two buttons. If user clicks on button #1, the timer will get reset to 30 seconds remaining. Then the script will run the php code #2 (which allows the timer to begin counting down again from 30 seconds). If user clicks on button #2, the timer will get reset to 5 seconds remaining and same thing follows as the first button. And obviously the timer should show the same number (seconds remaining) for all the users on the website! Thank You In Brno, 07.06.2011 Hello everybody, i really need your help with one issue. I have got one page running under Wordpress and i would like to add some countdown to widget to show when i will be again online. for example: I am online every working day (monday - friday) from 08:00 AM to 04:30 PM. So it would be nice to show to my subscribers when i would be online again. So lets think about that is Thuesday 07:00 PM, so on my page would be visible this: "I will be back in 13 hours, 00 minutes, 00 seconds" Or in Saturday at 07:00 PM there will be written: "I will be back in 37 hours, 00 minutes, 00 seconds" I would really apreciate every help, thank you in advance!
