Countdowns – A second method

I have already published a method to display countdowns in SharePoint lists, and generally speaking compare a date to today’s date. My method uses the DVWP and Javascript.

Alexander Bautz, a reader from Norway, has come up with slightly different approach. He has mixed two of my posts, the countdown and the “HTML calculated column“, to create a script that achieves the same result. A significant advantage of his approach is that you don’t need SharePoint Designer.
