I’m getting a syntax error on this countdown timer. Any suggestions?

onClipEvent(load) {

seconds = 30;  
time = seconds;  
running = false;  
restart = function () {  
countdown = getTimer()+1000\*seconds;  
running = true;  
time = seconds;  
}  
}  
onClipEvent(enterFrame) {  
if (running) {  
if (time == 0) {  
running = false;  
\_root.play();  
} else {  
time=Math.round((countdown-getTimer())/1000);  
}  
}  
}
