Hi there,

I am trying to make a countdown script for our website.

what i want is a script to say how long in days hours minutes and seconds until our next gangshow. when it reaches the time of the first performance i want it to change to say how long until the next performance until it gets to the end then i want it to change to say next show in 2009.

any one know how ican do this in php?

so far this is what i have come up with

<?php
$m = date("m");
$d = date("d");
$y = date("y");
$h = date("h");
$i = date("i");
$s = date("s");

$wedmat = "041107143000";
$wedeve = "041107193000";
$thurseve = "041207193000";
$frieve = "041307193000";
$satmat = "041407143000";
$sateve = "041407193000";

$now = "$m$d$y$h$i$s";

$q1= "$now < $wedmat";

echo "Next Show";

if ($now < $wedmat)
include 'countdown/wedmat.php';

elseif ($now >= $wedmat && $now < $wedeve)
include 'countdown/wedeve.php';

elseif ($now >= $wedeve && $now < $thurseve)
include 'countdown/thurseve.php';

elseif ($now >= $thurseve && $now < $frieve)
include 'countdown/frieve.php';

elseif ($now >= $frieve && $now < $satmat)
include 'countdown/satmat.php';

elseif ($now >= $satmat && $now < $sateve)
include 'countdown/sateve.php';

else

echo "Easter 2009!";

?>


when using the current date it seemed to work but now appears not to??? any ideas????

glad you worked it out, thanks for giving us the heads up so no one worked on what you already straightened out.
