I found some code to add to your scripts.js

[Howman]

I removed this

//progressPercentage = 70,

and this

if (progressPercentage < 1) {
progressPercentage = 1;
} else if (progressPercentage > 100) {
progressPercentage = 100;
}

I add this

var target = new Date('10/25/2013'),
today = new Date(),
daysToGo = Math.ceil((target.getTime() - today.getTime() ) / (1000*60*60*24)),
// probably not the best, but it should work
percent = 100 - daysToGo;

and then changed this

var progressBarWrap = $('#progress-bar-wrap');
var progressAmount = $('#progress-amount');
var targetWidth = $('#progress-wrap').width() * (percent / 100);
progressBarWrap.animate({
width: targetWidth
}, progressAnimationSpeed, function() {
$('#moving-arrow').fadeIn('slow');
progressAmount.text(percent + '%').fadeIn('slow');
}).css('overflow', 'visible');
$('#progress-indicator').fadeIn('slow');

But now I have this line

var target = new Date('10/25/2013')

and this

// Enter your launch date
launchDate = {
day: 31,
month: 11,
year: 2013,
hour: 12,
min: 0,
sec: 0
},

How would I use the // Enter your launch date to also set var target = new Date(’10/25/2013′),

Thank You for your help that seem to have done what I wanted

you can use to code to update launch pad if you like.

topic is now resolved

I am having problems with the facebook app too sorta like “TourneDisque” is and I am using on a live site. I will see what I can do my self. If i can not get it I will start a new topic

thank you once again

Can I reopen this I think its not working
cause if I set almost a year say 289 days the progress bar says -189% and that’s not right
I think there is something wrong with the math part of script

I was asking around at the jQuery forum and found out that the last code would work with in 100 days any thing over would show a negative number so this code will work (If you want to use it to update your launch pad you may)
Just now you have set 2 dates in different parts of the code
I just wish I knew more, about coding so I could figure out how to set the 2 dates in the same area of code maybe in time I will be able to do it. You can close this again if you wish

var targetDate = new Date(launchDate.year, launchDate.month - 1, launchDate.day);
var startDate = new Date('8/25/2013');
today = new Date();
daysToGo = Math.ceil((targetDate.getTime() - today.getTime() ) / (1000*60*60*24));
percent = (100 - ((targetDate -today)/(targetDate - startDate)) * 100).toFixed(
