    Hi,

    I'm creating a countdown timer to a dynamic date, it reads a date from a db and then counts down to that date. I need to know once the date has been reached how i then display a message stating that the users member ship is up.............any ideas?

    Thanks

    if recordset("userexpiration") < now() then
    response.write "Sorry Bucko... pay up or ship out"
    else
    'show the rest of the page
    end if

    And if you wanted a countdown, you could use the datediff(interval, dateA, dateB) command

    response.write(dateDiff("d", now(), recordset("userexpiration")))

    would give you the days remaining

    "h" = hours, "n" = minutes
