Q1203 I've seen timers that countdown in weeks, days, hours, minutes and seconds, but how can I show a single figure that counts down once every second?

Try:

<script language="JavaScript"><!--
function tick() {
    if (document.myForm.myCount.value > 0) {
        --document.myForm.myCount.value;
        setTimeout('tick()',1000);
    }
}
//--></script>

<body onLoad="tick()">

<form name="myForm">
<input type="text" name="myCount" value="10">
</form>
