I just wanted to know if anyone knew how to build a count down clock into the service-now and to be an option that can be seen on my homepage (where you can add graphs and other clocks using add content) I appreciate any feedback.

thanks

Import the attached UI Script XML and a UI Page XML. I had to change the extension to .txt to be able to upload the files.

Navigate to System UI > Widgets and add the following line under News:
'Christmas 2009 Countdown' : { 'type' : 'count_down' },

Now you should be able to select the 'Christmas 2009 Countdown' gadget.

To modify for a different date change the name in the entry for the gadget and change the date in the UI Page for a different date to count down to.

The javascript code for the countdown came from http://andrewu.co.uk/clj/countdown/.

I put this in Demo so you can see it. It is on the 'Employee Self Service' Homepage.


Thanks that really helps out but for some reason it does not tick and just displays the date that I want to count down to. I know its probably something simple but do you have any suggestions?


Never Mind... I never set the new UI Script to Active. 🙂
I Told you it was something simple. Thanks for the help
