I've tried to think of a few possible ways to accomplish what i need to do. so i'll outline what im aiming for really quickly.
I'd like to have a Timer display on the page
for example
1:25
and five seconds later it would read
1:20
my plan for doing this is using a bit of ajax along with my PHP.
my question is , is there any other way to do this?
also i was toying around with writing some self refreshing code..
aka. instead of it counting down by 1 second increments every 5 secs it would redisplay.
how would i go about doing that?
I get the concept of date() but i'm at a loss to using it to do what i want so any help would be appreciated. thanks!!
