Possible to get javcascript to work in shortcode?
-
I have a basic javascript countdown timer and want to create a shortcode to display countdowns for different dates. The shortcode I created is:
There are [sc:countdown holiday="2015,12,25"] until Christmas!
…and then the shortcode contains the following but doesn’t work. The javascript works, just not in the shortcode:<script> var current="NO MORE DAYS" var montharray=new Array("Jan","Feb","Mar","Apr","May","Jun","Jul","Aug","Sep","Oct","Nov","Dec") function countdown(yr,m,d){ var today=new Date() var todayy=today.getYear() if (todayy < 1000) todayy+=1900 var todaym=today.getMonth() var todayd=today.getDate() var todaystring=montharray[todaym]+" "+todayd+", "+todayy var futurestring=montharray[m-1]+" "+d+", "+yr var difference=(Math.round((Date.parse(futurestring)-Date.parse(todaystring))/(24*60*60*1000))*1) if (difference==0) document.write(current) else if (difference>0) document.write(difference+" days") } //enter the count down date using the format year/month/day countdown(2015,9,14) </script> <script type="text/javascript"> countdown(%%holiday%%)</script>
