    Hi,

    I have a flash countdown timer that counts
    down minutes and seconds to the next hour.
    I got from flashkit and was able to modify it
    enough (eg different background)

    but i really need another one to count down from
    hours and minutes until midnight (no seconds)

    anyone know how to do this or have a similar script
    lying around!? pretty please

    This sounds similar to something you need, the code is explained in detail, so perhaps you can edit it to work your own way.

    Hopefully you can work it out from here :)

    You'll end up with something like ...

    now = new Date();

    from this .. get the day the month and the year ...

    feed these into a new date object

    midnight = new Date(now.getYear(),now.getMonth(),now.getDate()+1,0,0);

    midnight.UTC - now.UTC = number of seconds ...

    Please note .. thats very rough but you should be able to figure it out :)
