Hi there,

Do not forget to use google, it is your friend

JavaScript countdown

Theres LOADS of ways to do this such as,

Javascript
JQuery
PHP
Flash

I often use flash for a countdown timer. You can find some nice stylish looking countdown clocks and timers on the ActiveDen website, or it might be called CodeCanyon now...(sorry can't remember) If you use Flash, it is SUPER easy to set up and configure.

Either you can use javascript timer or you can use flash script or flash animationf or a countre. I would say flash timer is better one

I'll answer with a bunch of links, this time, rather than reinvent the wheel with my own solution. Here's a list of some of the most interesting or clearly-written countdown timers in a variety of different languages.

Remember, though, that anything written in JavaScript has the inherent problem that it's relying on the clock of the visitor's computer being accurate. Macs all seem to sync to the network time servers, but I often see Windows machines off by hours, day, and sometimes even weeks (even in an otherwise well-managed IT environment like the University of Colorado, Boulder). However, if you're happy with a "95% solution", JavaScript will work fine...
