hi Q
found your practic n play page
and it still says 300
and 33/34 days
so not sure what is wrong with the code
the one in the attachment says 299 but it's still saturday here
so will check again tomorrow to see if it changed to 298 ;-)
here's the html code for the countdown
To 18-12-2008 - Mar's birthday
START
<html>
<head>
<title>Countdown to my birthday</title>
</head>
<TABLE borderColor=#0000cc cellSpacing=1 cellPadding=1
background="URL HERE " border=5>
<tr><td align="center">
<font color="#458b74">
<font size=7>
It is just
<script type="text/javascript">
<!-- Begin
var date = new Date("December 18, 2008");
var now = new Date();
var diff = date.getTime() - now.getTime();
var days = Math.floor(diff / (1000 * 60 * 60 * 24));
if (days > 1) {
document.write(days+1 + " Days");
}
else if (days == 1) {
document.write("Two Days");
}
else if (days == 0) {
document.write("Tomorrow");
}
else {
document.write("Today");
}
// End -->
</script>
till my birthday ;-)) <br>
<font size=4>
but my age is a secret ;-))
</font>
</td></tr></table>
</div>
</html>
END
you can replace the bg url with any bg but be sure it is on a public site and not closed or it will not show for others
you can also use bgcolor=COLORNAME instead of a background graphic
and you can play with the font size and styles, just like you do in messages
my text i coloured green in here
i noticed i have to change it a little because the sentence will be wrong when it comes to
tomorrow and today
you can leave out the head and title if you are inserting it on another page,
the generator makes a whole page out of it, with a separate graphic
i wanted to make it into a smaller banner to be placed on a page with more info
oh, the date i coloured purple in here
the colours are just to read the code better, it won't affect the banner
