For some reason my counter won't move, I've tried everything.
<div id="countdown"></div>
<script>
// set the date we're counting down to
var target_date = new Date("Feb 19, 2016").getTime();
// variables for time units
var days, hours, minutes, seconds;
// get tag element
var countdown = document.getElementById("countdown");
// update the tag with id "countdown" every 1 second
setInterval(function () {
// find the amount of "seconds" between now and target
var current_date = new Date().getTime();
var seconds_left = (target_date - current_date) / 1000;
// do some time calculations
days = parseInt(seconds_left / 86400);
seconds_left = seconds_left % 86400;
hours = parseInt(seconds_left / 3600);
seconds_left = seconds_left % 3600;
minutes = parseInt(seconds_left / 60);
seconds = parseInt(seconds_left % 60);
// format countdown string + set tag value
countdown.innerHTML = days + " days " + hours + " hours "
+ minutes + " minutes and " + seconds +" seconds";
}, 1000);
</script>
div#countdown {
margin-left: 109px;
}
