countdown timer in php

[vkimura]

I've been scouring the net (including webmasterworld) for a simple countdown display. For instance, displaying a 50 second countdown timer or 90 second countdown timer on my page. Is it better to create a client-side countdown timer in javascript? I'm not at all familiar with javascript. Any suggestions. I'm sure this is a simple task but I just can't find a simple countdown timer preferably in php or javascript.

Sincerely,
Victor

You won't find it here - server-side scripting cannot modify pages after they have loaded. Your best options are probably: JavaScript, Java or Flash.
