I'm coding a clock/countdown timer, and I'm confused about the UTC time. Currently Windows tells me that it's 11:41 UTC+1 (I live in Poland), but when I google the current UTC time it's 9:41 (UTC+0), so where did that one hour go?

//CODE1
counter = 60;
setInterval(countDown, 1000);

Tasked with creating a countdown timer which I've done before but never using the user's system clock. Does anyone know if its possoble to access the system time from within flash?
View 1 RepliesIm trying to design a countdown timer, with the ability to set the countdown time through buttons.I would like to have the dynamic text field to display the countdown numbers in HH:MM:SS format.I would also love to have a 30 minute button, and a 15 minute button which generates the time in the text field.Then a start and stop button to begin or end the countdown sequence.

View 2 RepliesI've been surfing around trying to find a tutorial or an open source file, on how to make an analogue clock tick backwards to a defined date/time. Maybe even with a shorter day 'hand'.
There's some really good digital looking ones out there, but me being the difficult person I am, it has to be analogue.
i am trying to create a 24 hour countdown clock that will loop and play backwards counting it self back down to 00:00:00:00, being new to flash As3 i am struggling to create this animation
00:00:00:00
hours:minutes:seconds:milliseconds
I have been given this code by a very helpful user
var timer:Timer = new Timer(1000);
var currentSeconds:int = 86400;
var milliseconds:int = 86400000;[code].......
the problem i am having now is do i need to add an instance name to the 00:00:00:00 design on the flash stage for the code to work as i have tried and i think im doing something wrong.

spent all morning trying to intergrate a xml feed into the countdown clock from the tutorial offered on this site.
var eventDate;
var race_time;
var race_location;
var raceYear = race_year;
var raceMonth = race_month;
[Code]...
The problem seems stem from the XML data coming in as a string which then needs to be converted into a integer for the new Date(); object.
I don't know how to do it. Check it out

What we have is a countdown clock that hits 0 at the start of a global sailboat race. The race start is in New Zealand, our servers are in Chicago. We're using a php script to pull the time from the server in Chicago, but for some reason the clock looks different in each time zone. This is a problem, because if your at the race it will say 10 minutes to the start, but if your in Chicago, it will say 10 hours or whatever it is.Here's the site.
Here's the code, AS2:
Code:
var targetDate:Date = new Date(2009, 1, 20, 19, 15, 0, 0);/*correct start time in chicago time. start time is feb 21, 01:15 */
var currentDate:Date;
if (cMilli != undefined) {
[code]....
I have changed my newDate to see where the problem lies but cannot get it to match my target time to 2/22/2012 7pm
this.onEnterFrame = function() {
var today = new Date();
var currentYear = today.getFullYear();

I have a simple analog clock, but I want it to show how long time store is open. so I quess there have to have some kind of transparent circle, which goes along as clock's pointers how to execute this?
Code:
time=new Date(); // time object
seconds = time.getSeconds()
minutes = time.getMinutes()

I was wondering if anyone knew of a Countdown Clock Script for 20 minutes. I'm working on a game for an elementary class, and each segment of the game is 20 minutes long. Is there a way to make a countdown like this? And how would I apply the script to an instance (text field)
View 3 RepliesI would like to make a binary countdown clock now. I followed senocular's tutorial on making a countdown timer, but it didn't work. How to make a countdown timer, and if possible make it use individual units of time, not just milliseconds, for the calculations. The problem with his tutorial that keeps me from changing the code to fit my needs is that it converts the numbers into a string and changes the numbers accordingly. I need to change the alpha of an mc depending on if the number goes into the binary form of the time left until the event.
When I made my clock, I knew that the time could never go under 1:00:00, and never over 23:59:59. All I did was made each "light" check what the value was, and if it needed to be "on" or "off", and then changed it accordingly. The code in each "light" is about 115 lines. Imagine making a check for each value if the event date is a year away! I can't attach a *.fla for my clock, because it is too big, but it's located here.
I have to make this analog clock for a university assignment and despite some really good efforts last night and tonight I just can't work out how to get it fully working. There is both a digital and analog clock; the digital clock works fine, but the analog clock just starts from a random time whenever I play the test movie. I am supposed to use the date object, not the timer object. And I am also supposed to add a sound every minute - I have added the sound to the minutes layer and selected but I don't know where to go from there. I seem to be able to find lots of example code for the timer object but not the date.
this.addEventListener("enterFrame",clockHandler); false, 0, true;
function clockHandler(e:Event)

I'm trying to make a countdown timer, but I haven't really learnt all about actionscript. (not yet anyway), but I need a timer that can count down the hours, minutes, seconds and milliseconds from a given time to an other.
I need the start timer to say:
01:31:53:70 (hour:minutes:seconds:milliseconds) and then it should count down so the timer stops at:
01:30:00:00

I want to add a moving background loops of clouds moving left to right ( or vice versa). I made it last night with regular tween but only at 1800 frames which made the counter stop at that. I need the AS2 script for making the motion loop background which wont affect the existing 30 minute counter. I have a stable image of the church on one layer and plan to just add a new lay with separate moving clouds.
