JavaScript - Need Countdown Timer To Reset Daily
Using the following script:
<script language="JavaScript">TargetDate = "01/22/2010 7:50 AM UTC-0500"; BackColor = "palegreen"; ForeColor = "navy"; CountActive = true; CountStepper = -1; LeadingZero = true; DisplayFormat = "%%D%% Days, %%H%% Hours, %%M%% Minutes, %%S%% Seconds."; FinishMessage = "Call In Now!!! Lines Are Open" </script> Want target date to equal every day so it resets after the target date and time is hit. Optionally, it would be nice to have it reset 60 minutes after target is hit (so the FinishMessage can display) but if that's too complicated, I'd be happy to not have to manually reset the date every day. I apologize in advance for being a newbie and this may be a straight-forward and simple issue. Similar TutorialsHi All, I am trying to set up a countdown function that will be called on the click of a button. Function is below Code:
function countDown(sec, min) {
sec--;
if (sec == -01) {
sec = 59;
min = min - 1;
} else {
min = min;
}
if (sec<=9) { sec = "0" + sec; }
time = (min<=9 ? "0" + min : min) + " min and " + sec + " sec ";
if (document.getElementById) { theTime.innerHTML = time; }
SD=window.setTimeout("countDown();", 1000);
if (min == '00' && sec == '00') { sec = "00"; window.clearTimeout(SD); }
}
function addLoadEvent(func) {
var oldonload = window.onload;
if (typeof window.onload != 'function') {
window.onload = func;
} else {
window.onload = function() {
if (oldonload) {
oldonload();
}
func();
}
}
}
addLoadEvent(function() {
});
However I get an error after one second. Script can be found here - http://www.jivalot.co.uk/m.php Can anyone help? Kind regards, Slate 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 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 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()
-->

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 hi, i am currently trying to write a javascript program; it would be for a library reservation system. this would be put on the computers with sessions from 15 minutes to 2 hours (in 15 minute chunks i.e, 15, 30, 45, 1 hour). this program would countdown the remaining time on their session, with pop-up messages appearing every so often. at the end of the session, the program will have to automatically log the user off. i am a student studying javascript, and haven't got any idea how to even start can anyone give me a helping hand to get me started. thanks Please understand that i have looked through the different timers on the JavaScript section but did not find any that can do what i am looking for and i don't know programming to edit any of them. I would like to have a countdown timer on my website that will count down from 12:00:01 am server time and end at midnight again of the same day (the clock should count down a full 24 hours) then it will automatically reset itself and count down again each and every day starting from 1 second after midnight. The count down should display hours : minutes : seconds just like a digital watch. I would also like to it to go with the server time and not client computer time so it will only count down according to the server time. One more thing .... each day a new trivia question will be posted and ppl have 1 day to answer the trivia question for a chance to win something (that is why the script is counting down). Will the script be able to automatically load a new trivia each day at midnight as the timer resets or do i have to load the trivia manually? If im getting way out of my head here then lets forget this last part. If it can be done i will certainly appreciate the advice. 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. I have spent over half a day looking through tutorials and code snippets and think I'm close, but I'm still having trouble with the output. I need to pull out the days/hours/mins separately as they sit within different HTML elements. 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);
}

My event takes place at 8pm on fridays. To see if this script works in all conditions, I change my system date and time (to see if the script displays the good remaining duration). TESTS: Friday - So I set my system date on friday but at different times. When I do that, everything seems to work fine. - If I chose an earlier time (11am for example), it's fine too. - If I chose 7:59:45 pm (and wait a few seconds) I can see the countdown resetting and displaying 6 days 23 hours 59 min 59 sec. So it's fine too. Saturday - But if I chose saturday 00:00:01 am it doesn't work. It displays 0:19:59:59 (as if the event occured the same day, saturday). - And if I chose saturday 7:59:45 pm, the counter resets and displays 6 days 23 hours 59 min 59 sec.. Which is also wrong because it would mean that the even occurs on saturdays 8pm. Sunday - Same for sunday (the same errors like saturdays) Btw, could it be possible to display on the HTML page, all variable values ? This could help me understand how the script is done. (I am a poor coder). Thank you very much. Hi folks, I am in need of a functionality for a system where in there is PHP mysql system having a table "bid" which has columns(bid_product, "createtime") basically if the user does not bid for the product within 20 hours the bid will close for this i need to display a timer which keeps counting till 5+ hours or so of the createtime, After a tiring search for timers i finally found a .Js which would work just fine for static values Within the .js script when i tried to pass values from my database the timer does not change on itself but each time i have to refresh the page to check the time left. Please have a look at the code and let me know what could be wrong testingtime.php Code:

I'm going crazy trying to figure this out. What I'm looking for is a javascript timer / count down script.

Willing to pay $50 for solution...

Hi. I'm looking for a simple JS countdown timer for a quiz that counts down 60 seconds. I've done a lot of searching and have found plenty of countdown timers for a specific time/date in the future, but nothing for my needs. I just want it to count down from 60 seconds to zero. Thanks a lot for your help! Ok, I have been trying for the last week to get my head around this javascript thing to create myself a countdown timer. And after many search keywords in whatever search engine I still couldn't find any good results which could meet my needs. I actually found a cute little script here on the forum, but unfortunately, and after many times trying, couldn't make it work for me as well. Yes it did what it was supposed to do, but I need something more specific. So here's the thing. I am working with PHP variables and need two countdown timers on one page. I have altered the script in various ways, and it kinda works, but whenever it starts running, the top countdown timer starts with the correct amount of seconds but then jumps to the same output as the below one. Code: <span id = \"closingtimer". $target ."\">". $seconds ."</span>
<script type=\"text/javascript\">
var seconds = ". $seconds .";
function display". $target ."() {
seconds --;
if (seconds < 1) {
closeMyAd();
} else {
document.getElementById( \"closingtimer". $target ."\" ).innerHTML = seconds ;
setTimeout(\"display". $target ."()\", 1000);
}
}
display". $target ."();
</script>
$target is a variable from the Db $seconds is the amount of seconds The script IS in a loop to be able to perform the function twice for the two different targets with their amount of seconds. Due to this (I suspect) the timer is counting down at 2 seconds at a time, which also is quite annoying Target 1 has 2400 seconds and target 2 has 1600 seconds. How can I make this work correctly and without having a huge script in the middle of my page? Hi there, Hopefully someone will be able to help me here. 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. Your help is greatly appreciated. Thanks, Simon. Code: <script type="text/javascript">

Code: <span id="countdown"> </span> Hi there. I am wanting to create a countdown timer that is based on a SELECT feature. If a user selected 15 MINUTES, the script would know 15 minutes was selected and would prompt start to time down when selected. Or if the user selected 30 MINUTES it would go to countdown from 30 minutes. I would also like a stopwatch feature on there if STOPWATCH was selected. It would also be great if when counting down the background box of the timer turns red to visually show the timer had gone over and start counting back up in minus to show how many minutes/seconds it has gone over. I've looked on good old Google but can't find a code i'm looking for! Thanks Ash Hi guys. I'm making a webpage for a school project and I need help modifying this timer he http://web.mac.com/rkuhnhenn/Countdo.../Style_3b.html I want it to countdown from 48 hours, and as soon as it counts down, I need it to reset. I need an endless countdown of 48 hours. How can I go about doing that? Thanks guys, your help is highly appreciated. Hi, Im looking for a simple script or solution that will allow a timer to count down 48hrs from a set time of the day and then after that reset and start the process again. For Example: Order within 23 hours 6 minutes for Delivery Tommorow The problem I have got is im not sure how to create a timer that does not reset every time you refresh the browser etc. Any hep would be great as im stumped with this one! Thanks Code: <script language="JavaScript"> TargetDate = "12/5/2009 12:00 PM"; BackColor = "grey"; ForeColor = "white"; CountActive = true; CountStepper = -1; LeadingZero = true; DisplayFormat = "%%D%% Days, %%H%% Hours, %%M%% Minutes, %%S%% Seconds."; FinishMessage = "Its finally here"; </script> <script language="JavaScript" src="http://scripts.hashemian.com/js/countdown.js"></script> i found this code on a website. it is a countdown timer. and i wanted to put it on a forum. but i think there will be a problem when others view it.. i think that other people from different time zones will see the time countdown different times.. is there a way to include a specific time zone (i.e. mine?) in this code? BTW its suppose to go to December 5, 2009. i am in GMT-6 Central Time. I was wondering how I can make the page refresh after the timer has reached 0 for X amount of seconds?
