is there a way to have it automatically go to an html page after the countdown goes to zero? What would the code look like to do that and I need a target= as well. The standard html isn’t working for me.

hi

I tried registering in your forum but received no confirmation email so now trying her

I have purchased the countdown and wish to remove the minutes, seconds, milliseconds.

I followed the post on your forum but for removing milliseconds and applied this to the minutes & seconds. But the line numbers are different in the AS. I tried to find any reference to the semicolon but had no luck – it didn’t work

can you email me the action script with the edits please.

I am new to AS.

That’s strange. The support forum seems to be working fine for everyone else. I’d give it another shot.

Hi there,

this week i bought your script, it works like a charm. I built a banner with it and restyled it a bit. But i have a question:

I’m loading the xml with an complete external url like: countdownXML.load(“http://www.mysite.nl/countdown.xml”);

The counter works perfect when i place the swf on this domain but when i put the swf on another domain the timer stays empty, it’s not finding the xml, but the xml really is available on this url.

Do you have a solution for this problem?

Hope you can help.

Grtz. Dennis

That’s a really, really annoying feature in Flash. Flash Permissions don’t allow you to access content from one domain on another for security reasons. There are ways to get around it with php. Basically, you have a php file call the xml and print it out. Then, you call that php file (on the same server as the Flash). The Flash will read it just like it’s the original xml.

The other option is to create a cross domain policy on the server holding the xml. In that case you may also need to write something in the actionscript looking for that policy. To be honest, I’m not 100% sure.

There’s a lot of documentation on the web for both options, but if you’d like me to do it as a freelance project, feel free to message me through my profile.

Hello,

When the clock is finished and the finished text is shown, is het also possible to remove the title of the event? So, you see only the finished text on the background and nothing else.

I like to hear from you soon! Thanks.

Greetings, Caroline

Just make it a direct path to the xml rather than a relative one. That should do the trick.

I am in need of your help How do you remove the Days? I do not want them showing and the directions you give do not make any sense because your line #’s are different than mine.

Is there a way to delete the next/previous arrows? I’d like to have a queue of events, but only show the one that’s immediately upcoming.

Thanks,
