Im trying to follow Kirupas own Flash countdown-tutorial here:  
[http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/countdown.htm](http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/countdown.htm)

Ive done everything as it says but this counter counts down to christmas. I want it to countdown to a date next year. How can I change that?
