Tuesday, 05/15/2007 -- by Jim Webb. Subject: Countdown Clock Script

I've looked everywhere and cannot find the script. Does anyone still have a copy?

Thanks!

Thursday, 11/29/2007 -- by Dan Small. Subject: countdown script

Could someone explain how this script could be modified to provide a specific countdown, say from 5 minutes? Would there be a different approach to doing this countdown? Searching the topic "countdown" has provided more unanswered questions than solutions. Any help is appreciated!!!
