Re: Countdown timer untill ship date??!?

They would still need the .swt file that contains the actual body of the flash program. The .swf is just like the viewer

I may be wrong on that. Been awhile since I played with flash

Re: Countdown timer untill ship date??!?

Love the flash timer! I think the next step will have to be 3D! I guess that's just one more projecet (along with Dashboard3D) that Tri5 Software and 555 will have to tackle ASAP!! I think I'll start working on it now!

I just found something I did wrong with the timer. I used the same one for a countdown to kickoff and I forgot to change the message at the end! I replaced the file in my post above with a fixed copy. Sorry about that guys.
