Hi, i am making a countdown timer that needs to countdown every 7 hours.seti have a time now that i can set to any time. and it counts down. now i want that it counts down ever 7 hours (starting at 14:02 to 21:02 to 4:02 to 11:02 ect)my questions are:1.how do i make it start on a specific time?2. how do i make it so that the timer does not start over everytime you refresh the page, or go to the page? i am pretty new to Javascript and this is the first thing i am "making"here is my code so farits just a countdown timer that counts down 5 seconds and restarts var Timer;var TotalSeconds; function CreateTimer(TimerID, Time) { Timer = document.getElementById(TimerID); TotalSeconds = Time; UpdateTimer() window.setTimeout("Tick()", 1000);}function Tick() { if (TotalSeconds <= 0) { Timer.innerHTML = " Time's up "; window.setTimeout("Tick", 1000); CreateTimer("timer", 5) return; } TotalSeconds -= 1; UpdateTimer() window.setTimeout("Tick()", 1000);}function UpdateTimer() { var Seconds = TotalSeconds; var Days = Math.floor(Seconds / 86400); Seconds -= Days * 86400; var Hours = Math.floor(Seconds / 3600); Seconds -= Hours * (3600); var Minutes = Math.floor(Seconds / 60); Seconds -= Minutes * (60); var TimeStr = ((Days > 0) ? Days + " days " : "") + LeadingZero(Hours) + ":" + LeadingZero(Minutes) + ":" + LeadingZero(Seconds);Timer.innerHTML += " " + TotalSeconds; Timer.innerHTML = TimeStr; }function LeadingZero(Time) { return (Time < 10) ? "0" + Time : + Time;} </script> i put this in the html: <div id="timer" ><script type="text/javascript">window.onload = CreateTimer("timer", 5);</script></div >
