Hi,

I had a question regarding this tutorial:

My questions is, is it possible that I make the counter by days only, no hours, mins, seconds or mili secs.

and how can i set the time to universal timing?

thanks a lot in advance.

please anyone?

I am also stuck on this part and appreciate your help:

vii. In naming the numbers movieclip, you'll need to follow the following format:

(time unit variable) + underscore + (character number)

For example. The variable which is going to be used to count the days will be called days. For the first numbers movieclip making up days in the countdown, it represents the first character in the days total 3 digits or, in Flash, 0 - relating to charAt(0). So, the name for that movieclip will be days + underscore + 0 or days_0.

This trick allows coding to be much easier. You'll see that later on. Here are all the names of the numbers clips in this example:
