else

CountBack(gsecs);

Compile it to .js yourself and upload it on FTP, or just search forums, because i've seen somebody posted - "Countdown" topic ..

Which is this :
http://www.vbteam.info/vb-3-8-x-addons-template-modifications/17709-user-countdowns-countups.html ..
Or just find tha Countdown hack in vBulletin forum, and post a request for that hack in Request section..

OR you could be more smarter and dont depend on anybody, by just googling the words "Countdown Code", and then you can actually Generate your own countdown, but be aware, that Countdown code will be in HTML. I dont remember, if Notices allow HTML, but o well... Try some different ways.. IF notices dont allow HTML, then also add word "Java" to words "Countdown Code"...

Good luck anyways..

Use this code:

<script language="JavaScript">
TargetDate = "12/31/2020 5:00 AM";
BackColor = "palegreen";
ForeColor = "navy";
CountActive = true;
CountStepper = -1;
LeadingZero = true;
DisplayFormat = "%%D%% Days, %%H%% Hours, %%M%% Minutes, %%S%% Seconds.";
FinishMessage = "It is finally here!";
</script>

If you're wanting to put it in a notice as has been done here, save the code into a .js file, upload it to /yoursite/clientscript/ (anywhere really, but just as an example), then place html code to the script in your notice.
