Hello, I have been stuck in this issue for 3 days now, I have datetime records in a mysql table, I need a php clock which naturally counts down, I mean acts like a clock, but the clock time should be the datetime field value descending by the second, based on the full datetime, from year to seconds It is not just one record, I made it to display this clock, the problem is javascript, which makes all the 36 records the last record value, it is an ajax pagination, so i will need to do the same on second page, right now ajax is not a prioritty, I can let go of ajax pagination, but need to display the clock Help is appreciated Many Thanks
Mysql is the database and the user doesn't see it PHP runs on the server and the user doesn't see it so to have a clock counting down you'll need javascript of some sort Lets say you are counting down to the release of a new movie The database would hold the release date and time. The user requests a page, PHP builds the page and gives it the date and time from the database Javascript (and not necessarily ajax) will then give a countdown of time until the movie comes out If the user then requests another page it too will get built with the date/time from the database and javascript will resume the countdown does that help?
