adding a countdown timer?
Anybody know where to get or how to add a countdown timer to a post?
I tried inserting this that I built online but it didn't work. Just not sure what the forum post will accept for the countdown timer to work. If someone knows of a way to build one and can paste it into this thread. That would be great. Countdown date needs to be 5/26/2012 Central standard time.

Posting and parsing HTML within a post is disabled on CF (as well as just about any other forum) due to security concerns and the ability to post HTML that could cause annoyance (sound, etc.) to viewers who view the post.
Basically, there is no way to accomplish what you're doing. You'd have to simply provide a link. BBCode can usually be customized to accept safe HTML (such as the YouTube feature), but something like this is not as easily accomplished.
