Hey

I need a countdown timer, I am trying to assign a PHP Variable for the value so it starts counting down from there.

For ex;

$seconds = 20; // PHP Variable assigned 20

The countdown timer will start counting down from 20 till it reaches 0.

Help would be really appreciated :)

if this can be possible in JavaScript please help me with that.

A count down timer in PHP alone will require output buffering, which will rely on extremely specific browser behaviours. This can be done in AJAX which is Javascript, or in Javascript alone, so I will move this to the appropriate forum.

Thank You.

The setTimeout() function in JavaScript might help.
