Mind checking the XHTML validation? Here are the errors:

# Warning Line 167, Column 14: character "<" is the first character of a delimiter but occurred as data.

if (todayy < 1000) {


This message may appear in several cases:

* You tried to include the "<" character in your page: you should escape it as "&lt;"
* You used an unescaped ampersand "&": this may be valid in some contexts, but it is recommended to use "&amp;", which is always safe.
* Another possibility is that you forgot to close quotes in a previous tag.

# Warning Line 183, Column 108: character "&amp;" is the first character of a delimiter but occurred as data.

[quote]# Error Line 186, Column 334: there is no attribute "onload".

You have used the attribute named above in your document, but the document type you are using does not support that attribute for this element. This error is often caused by incorrect use of the "Strict" document type with a document that uses frames (e.g. you must use the "Transitional" document type to get the "target" attribute), or by using vendor proprietary extensions such as "marginheight" (this is usually fixed by using CSS to achieve the desired effect instead).

This error may also result if the element itself is not supported in the document type you are using, as an undefined element will have no supported attributes; in this case, see the element-undefined error message for further information.

How to fix: check the spelling and case of the element and attribute, (Remember XHTML is all lower-case) and/or check that they are both allowed in the chosen document type, and/or use CSS instead of this attribute. If you received this error when using the <embed> element to incorporate flash media in a Web page, see the FAQ item on valid flash.

When I initially install this, and don't change any of the codes from your end...the mod works.

However, when I edit to match the board built date, I get this:

PHP Code:

It's been: NaN Days, NaN Hours, NaN Minutes, And NaN Seconds Since MobileQWERTY.com was created for you! 


Now granted the board is freshly created < 48hrs...but still should use all fields.

Please advise: http://mobileqwerty.com/forum

How about helping me out...

Still having an issue when uninstalling...and installing it.

Please advise.

Try with setting 'Start Date Format' to different value.
Also ensure that date segments are separated by commas.
