Kiwi_cruiser Posted October 5, 2009 #2 Share Posted October 5, 2009 What browser are you using??, if your using Firefox or something else, if you can try using Internet Explorer to set-up / add your Countdown Clock. If that does not help, post back here & let me know what issues your having. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yamcrzr Posted October 5, 2009 #3 Share Posted October 5, 2009 I have had problems as well. Is it because the browser is "Safari" Apple Mac. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kiwi_cruiser Posted October 5, 2009 #5 Share Posted October 5, 2009 I have had problems as well. Is it because the browser is "Safari" Apple Mac. I think so, as if you use something like Firefox / Safari etc... They break the countdown code the script gives you. yamcrzr If you post the code for your Countdown Clock here, I can fix it & then you can copy & paste it in & it should work.

Kiwi_cruiser Posted October 5, 2009 #10 Share Posted October 5, 2009 Tip: For your Pacific Jewel cruise countdown clock, if you put "Pacific Jewel" next to where it has "&text=" eg: "&text=Pacific Jewel" in the Countdown code, then everyone will know that your cruising on the Pacific Jewel ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
