Countdown Timer

A simple JavaScript countdown timer for websites

Description

This is a simple JavaScript countdown timer that displays the days, hours, minutes and seconds. Although not overly generic but takes away the overkill on most countdown I've come by.

Requirements

It will work on any browser that supports JavaScript

Installation

Download the JS file and link to it on your page like you would normally do a JavaScript file.

Usage

• In your HTML file create an element with a particular id, inside the id put four elements that will hold the day, hour, minute, and second. E.g.

  <div id='timer'><h1></h1><h1></h1><h1></h1><h1></h1></div>

• Instantiate class 'countDown' with the id of the timer container and the future date to count down to. E.g

  var Timer = new countDown('timer', 'May 14, 2019 23:32:48')

• Call function runTimer() like so

Timer.runTimer() 

and you're good to go.
