Creating a countdown that displays the days till a specified date.

This is a sample for a non grafical varian, the typoscript snippet simply outputs

"It is now xx days until xxx"

Put following in the constants field:

# The countdown date (In UNIX time format)
lib.countdown.date = 1142095231

And following into the SETUP field:

lib.countdown = COA_INT
lib.countdown {
  10 = TEXT
  10.cObject = TEXT
  10.cObject.data = date:U
  10.cObject.wrap = ({$lib.countdown.date} -|)/86400
  10.prioriCalc = intval
  10.wrap = It is now | days until 
  20 = TEXT
  20.value = {$lib.countdown.date}
  20.strftime = %d %B %y
}
