Daily PHP countdown

[abyssisthebest]

Im making a CMS and ive set up CobainBackup to backup my development directory every day at 16:00. I have got the download system working. But i would like to make a script that tell the people when the next download will be made.

I would like it in the format of Hours - Mins - Seconds

Thanks in advance
Craig

abyssisthebest,

I just about have the script completed. I should have the source code sufficiently tweaked in less than 24 hours.

1. I have a PHP script that will display the current time, the time you're counting down to, and how far away that time is.

2. I also have an integrated JavaScript that will countdown the time in real time.

Do you want the JavaScript version too?

I detected a problem with the JavaScript. The countdown is based on the client's computer - how much time until 16:00 in his or her time zone. It might be a few days for me to get the problem solved.

I am attempting to fix it now and I'll post when it's fixed.

Problem fixed. JavaScript counter works properly and also displays your server time in real-time!

Again, the links:

As the readme file states, you can just have realtime counters if you delete the "print" and "printf" statements in the PHP code.
If you just want a static timer display, delete the JavaScript and all the code following it.
