A friends band is having a gig soon and I wanted to make a flash advert for it to put on my site I want to have a really simple count down of how many days are left to it. I dont even want to the day displayed to change is the brwoser window is left open for a day. Just a simple when the move loads it callculates the number of days left. I’ve looked at the tutorial on making a date countdown but that is way to complicated for what i want it to do. any help would be greatly appreciated.

Using the same tutorial, except without sliced images as numbers.
