Hi,

just want to know if some one can help me with my countdown timer.

every time it my countdown timer gets to zero it goes back to 59:59:59:59.

i need it to stay at 00:00:00:00 or even better make it flash.

Code:

var thisYear:Number = 2011;
var thisDay:Number = 28;
var thisMonth:Number = 2;
var thisHours:Number = 19;
var thisMin:Number = 30;
var thisSec:Number = 0;
var countdownXML:XML = new XML();
countdownXML.ignoreWhite = true;
countdownXML.load( 'countdown.xml' );
countdownXML.onLoad = function( success:Boolean ):Void
{  
 var nowDate:Date = new Date();
 if( success ) {
     var eventDateData = countdownXML.childNodes[0].childNodes;
  if( eventDateData[0].attributes['year'] ) thisYear = Number( eventDateData[0].attributes['year'] );
  if( eventDateData[0].attributes['month'] ) thisMonth = Number( eventDateData[0].attributes['month'] );
  if( eventDateData[0].attributes['day'] ) thisDay = Number( eventDateData[0].attributes['day'] );
  if( eventDateData[0].attributes['hours'] ) thisHours = Number( eventDateData[0].attributes['hours'] );
  if( eventDateData[0].attributes['minutes'] ) thisMin = Number( eventDateData[0].attributes['minutes'] );
  if( eventDateData[0].attributes['seconds'] ) thisSec = Number( eventDateData[0].attributes['seconds'] );
  
  var testEventDate = new Date(thisYear, thisMonth-1, thisDay, thisHours, thisMin, thisSec );
  if( testEventDate <= nowDate ) {
   thisYear = nowDate.getUTCFullYear();
   thisDay = nowDate.getUTCDate() + Math.round( Math.random() );
   thisMonth = nowDate.getUTCMonth();
   thisHours = nowDate.getHours();
   thisMin = nowDate.getMinutes();
   thisSec = nowDate.getSeconds();
  }
 } else {
  thisYear = nowDate.getUTCFullYear();
  thisDay = nowDate.getUTCDate();
  thisMonth = nowDate.getUTCMonth();
  thisHours = nowDate.getHours();
  thisMin = nowDate.getMinutes();
  thisSec = nowDate.getSeconds();
 }
 startCountdown();
}
function startCountdown():Void
{
 eventDate = new Date(thisYear, thisMonth-1, thisDay, thisHours, thisMin, thisSec );
 this.onEnterFrame = update;
}
function update():Void
{
 //Current time
 var now:Date = new Date();
 var timeLeft:Number = eventDate.getTime() - now.getTime();
 
 //Converting the remaining time into seconds, minutes, hours, and days
 var seconds:Number = Math.floor(timeLeft / 1000);
 var minutes:Number = Math.floor(seconds / 60);
 var hours:Number = Math.floor(minutes / 60);
 var days:Number = Math.floor(hours / 24);
 
 //Storing the remainder of this division problem
 seconds %= 60;
 minutes %= 60;
 hours %= 24;
 updateCounters( days, hours, minutes, seconds );
}
function updateCounters( numDays, numHours, numMin, numSec ):Void
{
 days.gotoAndPlay( 'to' + numDays );
 hours.gotoAndPlay( 'to' + numHours );
 min.gotoAndPlay( 'to' + numMin );
 sec.gotoAndPlay( 'to' + numSec );
}

if some could help that would be great.

Regards,

Adam
