I am seeing 36 days, 11hours, 32minutes and 2 seconds right this second (see post date & time). The only thing that looks out of place is the information off to one side of "Time by Escati" It looks to be the banner size information.
Keep at it.. Your getting close, unless that is suppose to be there.. ;)

:) lol :)... you're close!!

If this is a help, here is the code that you need...

<!--BEGIN COUNTDOWN CODE--->
<center>
<font face=arial size=1><b>Countdown to ????????????:</b></font><br>
<table border=1 cellpadding=4 bgcolor=FFFFBB><tr><td>
<a href="http://escati.com">
<img src="http://escati.linkopp.net/cgi-bin/countdown.cgi?trgb=000000&srgb=00ff00&prgb=221100&cdt=2012;8;26;12;00;00&timezone=GMT-0400" border=0></a><br>
</td></tr></table>
</center>
<!--END COUNTDOWN CODE--->

Ok, see in that code, on the 3rd line where it says Countdown to ???????? Just take out the question marks and paste in whoever's name you want, and add parole/release. That will fix up that part.

Then see on the 8th line of that code where it says cdt=2012;8;26;12;00;00... you have to enter the parole/release date there in this format...
cdt=year;month;day;hr;min;sec


hope that helps :)


Oh okay, you've posted a bundle more while I was typing this out....LMAO....I think you've just about got it.

The reason you're getting that border=0 width=130 height=32> beside you're escati logo? I think you've got an extra bracket inserted in your code. Check on the code you pasted in, where it says "alt="Time By Escati"...it shouldn't have a bracket. If yours looks like this alt="Time By Escati"> take out that last bracket. It's a command, that's why that border thing is showing up. Same with the one by Rob's Parole Hearing...just take that one out too.

Ok, I hit 'view source' on this page and found your problem Sshari. {There was a bracketed break in your code, don't worry about it.} I've taken it out, this is the code that will fix that problem for you, just copy and paste it in your profile.

it's hopeless...completely hopeless! I used the new code you set up Toe and pasted it directly where it needs to go....maybe it's my computer?

Hmmm, I don't think it would be your computer. Try this one, I just took out the image link to escati, maybe it's a problem at that site. Get rid of what you have in there and try copying the below in, see if that gets rid of it Sshari.
