I just went through [this](http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/countdown.htm) tutorial on how to create a countdown timer with actionscript. It works great but I’m not sure just how to go about modifying the code so that it pulls from the servers time instead of the users time. Anyone able to help me out on this one?

I’ve attached the .fla

Thanks in Advance.
