[web] Countdown in Flash from 60 to 0
Author
Hello,
I am working with Flash 8 Professional, and I want to create a countdown timer (which is visible on screen) that counts down from 60 minutes to 0 minutes, and then at the end initiates an action. I searched on Google and only found timers that countdown from one date to another, and I wasn't sure how to convert this to just hours and minutes and milliseconds. How would I do this? Thanks in advance.
this should get you started!
it just counts down 1 minute, but you should be able to figure out enough from it to do what you want.
createTextField("countdown_txt", getNextHighestDepth(), 0, 0, 20, 20);countdown_txt.selectable = false;var ms:Number = getTimer();var count:Number = 60;countdown_txt.text = count.toString();onEnterFrame = function(){ if( getTimer() - 1000 > ms ) { ms = getTimer(); count = (count<=0) ? 0: count-1; countdown_txt.text = count.toString(); }}it just counts down 1 minute, but you should be able to figure out enough from it to do what you want.
