// Description: displays the amount of time until the "dateFuture" entered below.


// NOTE: the month entered must be one less than current month. ie; 0=January, 11=December
// NOTE: the hour is in 24 hour format. 0=12am, 15=3pm etc
// format: dateFuture = new Date(year,month-1,day,hour,min,sec)
// example: dateFuture = new Date(2003,03,26,14,15,00) = April 26, 2003 - 2:15:00 pm

dateFuture = new Date(2007,0,26,5,30,00);

// TESTING: comment out the line below to print out the "dateFuture" for testing purposes
//document.write(dateFuture +"<br />");

<div id="countbox">

This is my first time ever using javascript, so bare with me, planning to learn in the near future when i got time to pick up a book. I got this from a generator by the way, i know its really messy.
Any who, how would you change the color of this to say white?
As well as give it a position on the page, I'm using frontpage and its a disastore to try to move it around.

Thanx ALOT! in advance to whoever may be able to help me.

I think your problem was in the last part, right?

window.onload=function(){GetCount();}//call when everything has loaded

Where the closing } is after the code-end of that line. Was that your problem?
