hey i just found a code but can someone mark in red the bit i change to make it count down

<!– THREE STEPS TO INSTALL NUMBER COUNTDOWN:

  • 1. Copy the coding into the HEAD of your HTML document

  • 2. Add the onLoad event handler into the BODY tag

  • 3. Put the last coding into the BODY of your HTML document –>

    • <!– STEP ONE: Paste this code into the HEAD of your HTML document –>

    <HEAD>

    <SCRIPT LANGUAGE=”JavaScript”>

    <!– Ben ([email protected]) –>

    <!– Begin
    <!–
    var g_iCount = new Number();

    // CHANGE THE COUNTDOWN NUMBER HERE – ADD ONE TO IT //
    var g_iCount = 11;

    function startCountdown(){
    if((g_iCount – 1) >= 0){
    g_iCount = g_iCount – 1;
    numberCountdown.innerText = ’00:00.0′ + g_iCount;
    setTimeout(‘startCountdown()’,1000);
    }
    }
    // End –>
    </script>

    </HEAD>

    <!– STEP TWO: Insert the onLoad event handler into your BODY tag –>

    <BODY onLoad=”startCountdown()”>

    <!– STEP THREE: Copy this code into the BODY of your HTML document –>

    <font face=”Digital Readout Upright” color=”blue” size=”7″>
    <div align=”center” id=”numberCountdown”></div>
    </font>

    @sta12sMar 18.2006 — Ok, look for the "+" and change it a -

    I'm not gonna mark it in red 'cause it's uber easy ... just look for the ONLY "+" in da code

    @felgallMar 18.2006 — You don't need to change the + to a -

    The only + in the code is concatenating two strings.

    There is already a - where the code is counting down.

    The problem is that this code uses innerText which is non-standard code and doesn't work in most browsers. Change the innerText to innerHTML to fix it.

    @sta12sMar 18.2006 — thx Felgall ... I see where my advice was uber wrong - lol

    The code is counting down from 11, is that a large enough number considereing you want it to count down to 0:00:00?

    Try increasing the value of g_iCount and see what happens ... what do you think Felgall?
