How to countdown for a few minutes?
You can countdown the timer for a few minutes like that:
$(document).ready(function() { function formatDate(date) { var year = date.getFullYear(); var month = ('0'+(date.getMonth()+1)).slice(-2); var day = ('0'+date.getDate()).slice(-2); var hour = ('0'+date.getHours()).slice(-2); var minute = ('0'+date.getMinutes()).slice(-2); var second = ('0'+date.getSeconds()).slice(-2); return year+"/"+month+"/"+day+" "+hour+":"+minute+":"+second; } var startDate = new Date(); var endDate = new Date(startDate); var addMinute = 3; //Change minutes endDate.setMinutes(endDate.getMinutes()+addMinute); //Countdown timer $(".countdown").circleTimer({ startDate:formatDate(startDate), endDate:formatDate(endDate), showDay:false, showHour:false, timeZone:-5, //Time zone of New York (Change time zone) onFinish:function() { alert("Countdown ended"); } }); });
You should write your time zone to make it work properly.
