I would like some code to countdown 10 days. At the end of 10 days the user would be redirected to a webpage. I would prefer a server side language. Can't I utilize the following code to determine the countdown starting point??
<?php$d=strtotime("+10 Days");echo date("M-d-Y h:i:sa", $d) . "<br>";?>The following code works but I would prefer not to set a specific date.HERE'S THE CODE THAT I HAVE SO FAR<?phpdate_default_timezone_set("America/New_York");$days = 11; // Day of the countdown$month = 2; // Month of the countdown$year = 2016; // Year of the countdown$hours = 20; // Hour of the day (east coast time)$event = "Your Trial period expires."; //event$calculation = ((mktime ($hours,0,0,$month,$days,$year) - time())/3600);$hours = (int)$calculation;$days = (int)($hours/24);if ($hours <= ("0")) { echo '<script>window.location.href = "TRIALPAGE_B.html";</script>';}?><ul><li>The date is <?=(date ("l, jS \of F Y g:i:s A"));?>.</li><li>It is <?=$days?> days until <?=$event?>.</li><li>It is <?=$hours?> hours until <?=$event?>.</li></ul> -
I could use some help here.....I currently am using a compiler to create some simple software. This compiler utilizes a "recipe". This "recipe" contains tags which look like this...[#tags#]. When you run your created software it will ask you for a question pertaining to that specific tag. At the end you may "Preview" your result and this will open up in a browser window. Pretty much any computer language can be used with this compiler but I prefer html and javascript. My dilemma, how can I create a 30 day demo of the software that I create?? I've tried numerous countdowns but was unsucessful.Below is a sample "recipe" for a piece of software that helps you create a press release.Contact Information:

this seems like a very stupid question but I have to ask it.
What happens when a cookie expires?? -
Thanks Lg, the link was mentioned in my original post and I've been tryin to figure out how to write the expiration in the app. any suggestions???is this Javascript? you might have the wrong section.Do you have some code that you have tried, or can you give a link to the page where the questions are asked?how I would approach this situation is write the expiration into the application. -
I'm using a compiler to write this and how do I write an .ini file??I'm guessing you're using Visual Basic or equivalent to write the software? Why not just write the date of install into an .ini file and check that every time the exe loads? If it's after the 30 day period, redirect them somewhere else.Obviously that's a simple idea - you'd want to maybe encrypt the date so it's not easy to find and tamper with -
I have an applicatio that I would like to make into a 30 day trial version. This software asks a series of questions, you answer the questions and the results page pops up on your browser. I have tried various date functions, countDown, setTimeout and a host of other functions but still no luck.It's time to back up and start over so I'm asking everybody in this forum; How would YOU approach this situation??Ideally, I would like to be able have the software be totally functional for a period of 30 days from the date that the user downloaded it, then after day 30 redirected to a different page.I'm not asking anyone to write the code for me I would just like to know how any of you would approach this.I have posted several items here, some have been answered (thank you) and some have not.If it would be helpful to see the application then here's the link http://igorrecommends.com/ColorFormulator/Control.exe You don't need to answer the questions to get to the results page.I have become so confused about this that I think that a fresh approach is now the answer.Thank you for all of your anticipated helpM~

Can you use the countdown function to countdown days?? I would like to have a countdown of 30 days or 15 days at which point at the end of the countdown period the person wouldbe directed to a separate siteI have tried date comparison and many other things but with no luckI really need help on this one.Thanks in advanceM~sweet - glad you all like it. I was pretty happy when I found all the elements to make that script - took a few google hours but it's proven quite worth the time since its been running since June of 2005 on a site that sees 21,000 uniques users a week. -
Thanks Vchris, Using js would be fine since the software is utilizing js anyway. If someone disables js in their browserthey won't be able to use the software. As far as protecting the sourcecode I have this little program that allows me to encrypt certain segmentsof my sourcecode. If anyone is interested let me know and I'll put it up on a website so you can download itand try it.Thanks again Vchris
