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
