New CF Code: [countdown]

[Erwin]

I finally did it... I added a countdown for the people requesting one, to use in posts and sigs.

To use it, you do this:

[ countdown=November 19, 2005]CF 4 year Anniversary![/countdown ]

REMOVE THE SPACES IN THE COUNTDOWN TAGS ABOVE!

The above tag, with the spaces removed, will show up as:

[countdown=November 19, 2005]CF 4 year Anniversary![/countdown]

You can use this for birthdays, pregnancy tickers, or anything you want.

NOTE: You need a browser that supports java applets. Applets are used for security.

You can install a java applet addon to your browser if you can't see the countdown banners by clicking here:

Thank you Erwin

Have you booked that holiday yet?

 

[Why?]

blah... now if I want to see them I'll have to use a seperate browser for CF... Oh, well.

That's a nifty piece of work Erwin What format does the date have to be in? As per your demo or would something like '19/11/2005' do?

It's not working for me. All I get is a rectangle, with the dreaded red cross in the corner. Any sugggestions what I'm missing? Or do I need to change my computer settings?

 

[praying]

but I don't see what it shows up as, I only see the little red x but if I could I bet I would like it.

Cut and paste Erwin's example.

You have to remove the SPACE in Each of the []'d commands.

Before Submit, do a Preview and if you don't see the countdown, see if you can figure out where you missed a space, and then Preview and preview and preview until you do see it. That's how you know you got it.

[countdown=December 5, 2004]Tomorrow, tomorrow, tomorrow[/countdown]

is this:

[countdown=December 2, 2004 ]Tomorrow, tomorrow, tomorrow[/countdown ] with a single space before each of the closing brackets which is not in the above counter.

If you reply to this message you should see the proper code
