Countback till newyear

how to do that.

[ikbenhet1]

Is it possible to have a clock that will count back till newyear on my site?

Ex: 304 Hours 24 Minutes and 34 seconds left. (and counting down)

Yes...but you need to use a javascript many of which are available for free...(just search google for "javascript countdown clock" )

I found quite a good (and alterable) one here It was built for Y2K, but just change the date when promted to get the code you require

[edit] until I tried to leave the page and got one of those annoying pop-up alerts!...but this could be edited out of the code :)[/edit]

It should be fairly easy to do in javascript.
