If your server is Apache, you could, for example, put the following element into your HTML page to output a current date 1 day: I recommend XDate because it will save a lot of typing.Also, please don't use inner HTML, it's such a bad habit.I have a question: When countdown date/ time 1 expires, I would like it to go to the 2nd date. When date/ time expires, I would like it to countdown to the END of that season: Date 2: January 3th 2016 pm.

In the page I add the tag and put in some default info just because: NB: I do use inner HTML to quickly obliterate nested tags rather than a recursive "delete all children" because that's in a different library and not pertinent to this example. T/Then you can add for example a span tag in your text, and insert the date with javascript.
