Do I need to post another snippet? I relised I posted a crappy snippet that I had been screwing around with, I will post the original shortly..

Paste bin of the updated code.

Where is the gettimeleft() function defined? I can't find it anywhere in your code.

It's in /includes/brain_file.php

Here's there snippet, I can post the complete code in a pastebin if needed

function gettimeleft($tl) {
                 if($tl  0)//MONTHS

[uSER=70485]G7470[/uSER] can you figure it out?

[G7470]

The timers won't be changing like they did with the Javascript - you're using a PHP function to accomplish this, so the timers will not keep changing. They will stay the same on the page until the page is refreshed.

Also, your brain_file.php is laughable, sorry (not sorry) Please stop using mysql_*!

I want to change the timers in my code to JavaScript, I have tried, and keep failing miserably.

As you would see with my previous comments.

I did not code the brain_file.

And at the moment I really can't be stuffed going through the code changing the mysql.

And I don't see why it matters?

It doesn't matter if you didn't code it; it's your project, maintain your files!

Because mysql_* is deprecated (and now officially dropped in PHP 7). If you (or your host) upgrades your PHP version, your application will not work.

Can you create a MCVE? You're pasting way too much irrelevant code, so I won't help with all that noise.

Plus, what's wrong with

• NonStopCodings' version: http://makewebgames.io/forum/ge...654#post278654
  
• ~Rob0ts' version: http://makewebgames.io/forum/ge...701#post278701
  
• Your version: http://makewebgames.io/forum/ge...734#post278734
  

Or were they not as plug-in-and-do-nothing as you'd like?

As I've said I can't get it working with fj_time.

I have tried numerous times to get it working and nothing, when I do the span if just returns blank

[-BRAIDZ-]

This here what I'd like to change from the gettimeleft function to a JavaScript timer (which as stated previously I have tried changing it)

When I try it returns a blank span.

$q_ry = "SELECT *
                            FROM `fed_jailed`
                            WHERE `fj_playerid` = '".mysql_real_escape_string($_GET['XID'])."'";
                   $infed = mysql_query($q_ry);
                   if(mysql_num_rows($infed))
                   {
                      $if = mysql_fetch_array($infed);
                      echo "In federal jail for " . gettimeleft($if['fj_time']) . " 

                            Reason: " . $if['fj_reason'] . "

";
                   }

What is the value of fj_time? A timestamp or date string? I'd redo your gettimeleft function, it's hideous... (here, I've done it for you)

Which countdown timer solution are you using?

[uSER=70347]NonStopCoding[/uSER] one is for the amount of seconds

[uSER=71587]~Rob0t[/uSER] one is the ending timestamp

And it's a time stamp

[sniko]

And it's a time stamp

 

Ok, then most likely it's counting down from the unix timestamp (ie: 1452158818; which is over 46 years). Assuming fj_time is the time in the future, then do the following;

 

<script type="text/javascript"> var count = <?= $infed['fj_time'] - time() ?>;
var now = Math.floor(new Date().getTime() / 1000);
count = count - now;
var counter = setInterval(timer, 1000); //1000 will* run it every 1 second 

function timer() {
  count = count - 1;
  if (count == -1) {
    clearInterval(counter);
    return;
  }
  var seconds = count % 60;
  var minutes = Math.floor(count / 60);
  var hours = Math.floor(minutes / 60);
  var days = Math.floor(hours / 24);
  minutes %= 60;
  hours %= 24;
  document.getElementById("clock").innerHTML = days + " days " + hours + " hours " + minutes + " minutes and " + seconds + " seconds";
}
</script>

Thanks, I am getting this though

What is the value you're expecting? Can you give me the value of fj_time for this account?

Easy fix.

• I didn't notice on line 3 it was subtracting the current time on NSC post
  
• The original calculations are wrong
  

I've addressed the above bullet points in this post. This should solve your problems.

 

<script type="text/javascript">
var _seconds = <?= $infed['fj_time'] - time() ?>;
var counter = setInterval(timer, 1000); //1000 will* run it every 1 second

function timer() {
  _seconds = _seconds - 1;
  if (_seconds == -1) {
    clearInterval(counter);
    return;
  }
  var days = Math.floor(_seconds / 86400);
  var hours = Math.floor((_seconds % 86400) / 3600);
  var minutes = Math.floor(((_seconds % 86400) % 3600) / 60);
  var seconds = ((_seconds % 86400) % 3600) % 60;
  document.getElementById("clock").innerHTML = days + " days " + hours + " hours " + minutes + " minutes and " + seconds + " seconds";
}
</script>

fj_time = 1481690974

time() = 1452173271

fj_time - time() = 29517703 seconds
