Creating our javascript code

  1. <SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JAVASCRIPT">
  2. <!-- hide this script tag's contents from old browsers
  3. function lifetimer(){            
  4.  
  5.        today = new Date()          
  6.  
  7.        BirthDay = new Date(document.live.age.value)        
  8.  
  9.        timeold = (today.getTime() - BirthDay.getTime());        
  10.  
  11.        sectimeold = timeold / 1000;        
  12.  
  13.        secondsold = Math.floor(sectimeold);        
  14.  
  15.        msPerDay = 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000 ;        
  16.  
  17.        timeold = (today.getTime() - BirthDay.getTime());        
  18.  
  19.        e_daysold = timeold / msPerDay;        
  20.  
  21.        daysold = Math.floor(e_daysold);        
  22.  
  23.        e_hrsold = (e_daysold - daysold)*24;        
  24.  
  25.        hrsold = Math.floor(e_hrsold);        
  26.  
  27.        minsold = Math.floor((e_hrsold - hrsold)*60);          
  28.  
  29.        document.live.time1.value = daysold              
  30.  
  31.        document.live.time2.value = hrsold              
  32.  
  33.        document.live.time3.value = minsold

Virus note: All files are scanned once-a-day by SourceCodester.com for viruses, but new viruses come out every day, so no prevention program can catch 100% of them.

FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY, PLEASE:

1. Re-scan downloaded files using your personal virus checker before using it.
2. NEVER, EVER run compiled files (.exe's, .ocx's, .dll's etc.)--only run source code.
