Xmas countdown code help! (includes displaying images)

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,
   
  I have created a little Christmas countdown on the site using PHP and mySQL.  The database controls the images displayed.  But to make it simplier as I know the problem does not reflect my db setup or talking to the db I've re-wrote the code into a JavaScript code.  So it's easier to read.
   
  The problem is the days to Christmas and images displayed display absolutely fine.  But when there is 0 days to Christmas the NEW YEAR image does not display. :(  But the countdown ones do.
   
  Here is the code:  *I have commented areas with //*
   
  <script type="text/javascript">
<!--
 function placeimg() {
  
  var currentDate = new Date();
  
  // December is month 11
  
  var endDate = new Date(2005, 11, 25, 23, 59, 59);
  
  var days = (endDate-currentDate)/1000/60/60/24;
  var daysRound = Math.floor(days);
  
  // Check when to put Sleeps and when to put sleep
  
  if (daysRound == 1) {
      var sleeps = "Sleep";
  } else {
      var sleeps = "Sleeps";
  }
  
  if (daysRound<=0) {
 var alttag = "Merry Christmas!"
      document.write("<a target=\"_top\" href=\"/\"?PHPSESSID=c8b567b9f7640ce57720265db80b4f16gqkchtfzjqddmqgbzkepmohogd081925><img border=\"0\" src=\"/christmas05/"+daysRound+"_days.gif\" alt=\""+alttag+"\" height=\"/50\" width=\"/125\"></a>");
    
 
  } else {
    
      var alttag = ""+daysRound+" "+sleeps+" until Christmas"
      document.write("<a target=\"_top\" href=\"/\"?PHPSESSID=c8b567b9f7640ce57720265db80b4f16gqkchtfzjqddmqgbzkepmohogd081925><img border=\"0\" src=\"/christmas05/"+daysRound+"_days"+".gif\" alt=\""+alttag+"\" height=\"50\" width=\"125\"></a>");
  }
  
  
 }
placeimg();
//-->
</script>
   
  You can see the code working at http://www.getpaid2reademails.com/
   
  Ignore the PHPSESSID.
   
  Also it currently only records time left from your personal clock on your PC.  How would I go about getting the server time instead?
   
  But of course this would not be ideal for everyone in different countries but I wondered an easy way to do it.
   
  Thanks for your time.
   
  Jerry
