bbcode countup by week and days?

[ashley526]

I have a bbcode that works as a count down and count up script. But it only displays in days... :glare: I was wondering if anyone had a script that would count up or down by weeks and days?

Thanks in advance!

hack the code that displays for days... change the output to do...

$weeks = int($days/7);
$days = $days % 7;
$output = ($weeks > 1) : "$weeks weeks " ? "$weeks week " . ($days > 1) : "$days day" ? "$days days";

something like that would work... (or should :p)

function countdown(thedate,thename) {
	var date = new Date(thedate);
	var now = new Date();
	var diff = date.getTime() - now.getTime();
	var days = Math.floor(diff / (1000 * 60 * 60 * 24))+1;
	if (days==1 || days==-1) {
	var plural="";
	} else {
	var plural="s";
	}
	if (thename=="") {
	var thename=thedate;
	}
	if (days > 0) {
		document.write(days + " day"+plural+" until "+thename+".");
	} else if (days == 0) {
		document.write("Today is "+thedate+".");
	} else {
		document.write(-days + " day"+plural+" since "+thename+".");
	}
}{

That is the script I have... I am really stupid when it comes to this. I guess you can't add that php script to this, huh?

err you have javascript there... not quite the same... I may be able to find the functions in JS but not sure... I'll have a look at it later (not into googling right this minute :p)

Well I found this... but now I cannot get my bbcode to work! Errrr

thanks for the help anyway! 😉

	}
