Is it just my computer or can noone see the countdown timer on the main page. to me it looks like incomplete coding seeing as how it looks like coding and nothing else. if it is just my computer, can anyone tell me the time it will be realeased and the time zone!

Do you have javascript enabled in your browser? If not you will not be able to see the countdown. Currently the countdown is at 12 hours, 10 minutes, 7 seconds.

Hello guitardude108,

Make sure you have Java enabled. It'll be released in about 12 hours from now, which means just switch your time right now from AM to PM and 2.0 will be released. Enjoy.

var then = 1256050800; var now = 1256009182;

Is this the clock? It's a little screwed up.

I couldn't get it to display in IE 8, had to switch to Firefox.

Well, just a quick look at the code and this is the problem.

<div class="words"

This div isn't closed, so the code is broken on certain browsers, except Firefox, and possible others.
Broken in IE, and Opera.


WRONG:
<div class="countdowncss">
<div class="words"
<script id="countdown" type="text/javascript">
var then = 1256050800;
var now = 1256011233;
</script>
<script src="countdown.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
</div>
</div>


CORRECT:
<div class="countdowncss">
<div class="words">
<script id="countdown" type="text/javascript">
var then = 1256050800;
var now = 1256011233;
</script>
<script src="countdown.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
</div>
</div>

I don't work in source code because it is too time consuming for me. However, I do understand it. Nice catch on the open-ended line of code. It can cause a massive headache if not caught. The staff has worked hard to get this version up and running, so they're entitled to a, um, minor screwup.
