LUCA Countdown Scripts

Follow the instructions below to install the countdown scripts at www.census.indiana.edu/luca/schedule.html on your own website.

The Clock

This is from www.poodwaddle.com. You can customize size and background color, and this is the code needed on your webpage:

The Countdowns

1. Download the following files and save to a location on your web server. (Note: these are the same code, but they have been customized to display different descriptions for BAS and full review.)
• www.census.indiana.edu/js/LUCAcountdown_bas.js
• www.census.indiana.edu/js/LUCAcountdown.js
2. Link the javascripts in the head of your webpage (you’ll want to use your own path depending on where you saved them in your site hierarchy)):
• <script src="../js/LUCAcountdown_bas.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
• <script src="../js/LUCAcountdown.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
3. Call the script at the point where you want it to display on the same page with the following code ( this is where you set the date):
   • <script type="text/javascript">countdownBAS(2007,10,31);</script>
     
   • <script type="text/javascript">countdown(2007,11,19);</script>
