Hi I found the countdown timer tut really cool, but i need to count onwards from a date, so it would say how far gone past the date we are. And also add years on to it to.

Here is the link to the tut [http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/countdown.htm](http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx/countdown.htm)

Does anyone have any ideas, how i could do this???
