scrpit for count away in days from a date

[meanweaver]

Help! I need a way of putting a counter on a page that counts in days away from a date, ie something like "In bussiness for 54444 days"

I presume this can be done with java but if possible i need a tutorial aimed at a novice, I dont know much about scripts other than copy and pasting things into the head of documents.

Good luck with that script - should be a breeze. Just want to meantion that what you are using is JavaScript (created by Netscape) That's a very different thing from Sun Microsystem's Java language, although they are easily confused because of the naming similarity.
