Count down to a specific date...
...and here's how it's done!
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="Javascript"><!--
var today = new Date()
var targetdate = new Date("Jan 31, 2999")
var msPerDay = 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000 ;
var daysLeft = (targetdate.getTime() - today.getTime()) / msPerDay;
daysLeft = Math.ceil(daysLeft);
document.write("There are " + daysLeft + " days left until next Millennium!");
//--></SCRIPT>
|
...here's one that will display a message when a specific date is reached!!
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="Javascript"><!--
var today = new Date();
var anchor_date = new Date("Feb 01,1962");
if (today.getMonth() == anchor_date.getMonth()
&& today.getDate() == anchor_date.getDate())
{
alert("Happy Birthday, Michael!!!");
// or other stuff on that day
}
//--></SCRIPT>
