Daily counter

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Sep 30.2005

Hey Folks-
I am trying to find some javascript that will allow me to automatically add one digit a day to a counter. I’m tracking how many days Jose Padilla has been kept in US custody without a trial but I sometimes forget to change the day. I know there must be some simple piece of code but I’m a writer (I know? not a coder.

Check out: [url]http://nakedzoo.blogspot.com/[/url]

See the 1244 on the right? I want that to go up by a factor of one everyday.

Thanks very much.

Adam

&lt;script type="text/javascript"&gt;
function getD(){
var then=new Date(1020615616703);//Sun, 05 May 2002 16:20:16 GMT
var now=new Date();
var d=now.getTime()-then.getTime();
d=Math.floor(d/1000/60/60/24);
return d;
}
&lt;/script&gt;
&lt;/head&gt;

&lt;body&gt;

It's been &lt;script type="text/javascript"&gt;
document.write(getD())
&lt;/script&gt; days since whatever.
&lt;/body&gt;
