Javasacript Countdown timer in Days, Hours, Minute, Seconds
I finally got back to looking at this and re-wrote the code and this works like a charm.
var upgradeTime = 172801;
var seconds = upgradeTime;
function timer() {
var days = Math.floor(seconds/24/60/60);
var hoursLeft = Math.floor((seconds) - (days*86400));
var hours = Math.floor(hoursLeft/3600);
var minutesLeft = Math.floor((hoursLeft) - (hours*3600));
var minutes = Math.floor(minutesLeft/60);
var remainingSeconds = seconds % 60;
function pad(n) {
return (n < 10 ? "0" + n : n);
}
document.getElementById('countdown').innerHTML = pad(days) + ":" + pad(hours) + ":" + pad(minutes) + ":" + pad(remainingSeconds);
if (seconds == 0) {
clearInterval(countdownTimer);
document.getElementById('countdown').innerHTML = "Completed";
} else {
seconds--;
}
}
var countdownTimer = setInterval('timer()', 1000);<span id="countdown" class="timer"></span>Personally I would use the jquery countdown timer integration. It is simple and having number of options to display in different formats. Since I am fairly new to JS as well, this was the easiest way I found to get a count/timer.
