CentOS - Jan 2009 - OT: Looking for a timer/counter script

Hello,

Was hoping someone could help me find a script for a website that increments
at a specified rate over a specified period of time, something similar to
the US National Debt site.  I searched hotscripts but not really sure what
this type script would be called.

TIA

PS  I looked at the code for the national debt script but I can't make head
or tails of it.

Well, a simple time ticker would do. You should be able to set the
rate / time for the counter increments. Hotscripts.com, under PHP have
quite a few turorials for this kind of thing.

Look, for exampe, for a "countdown timer", and the modify the code a
bit to run forwards instead of backwards.
