Instantiation

Hey,

I've did a major rewrite of your really nice countdown timer. It should also work with the current specification.

Example for illustration:

var timer = $('#timer').final_countdown({
    seconds: {
        borderColor: '#fff',
        borderWidth: '10'
    },
    minutes: {
        borderColor: '#fff',
        borderWidth: '10'
    },
    hours: {
        borderColor: '#fff',
        borderWidth: '10'
    }
});

// Set times (start, end, now)
timer.set(new Date.now().getTime() - (15 * 1000), new Date.now().getTime() + (15 * 1000), new Date.now().getTime());

// Start the timer
timer.start();

// Stop the timer
timer.stop();

The improvements in detail:

• returns instance of countdown object
• counters aren't bind anymore to an id
• redefines (set) the timers dynamically
• start/stop timers
• arbitrary definition of days, hours, minutes and seconds

Improvements:

• "use strict" directive
• JSLinted

Looks very nice indeed!! (and much easier usage).

Thanks, but unfortunately there isn't any activity in this repo anymore. Hopefully the owners will merge this someday or I will have to empower the fork.

As I understand this allows to use multiple counters on the same page. Nice! Can you show sample HTML? I've moved those IDs to classes but it still doesn't work for me.

Have a look at my fork, I also adjusted the readme: https://github.com/zusatzstoff/jquery-final-countdown

A live example can be seen here: http://zusatzstoff.github.io/guild-wars-2-timer

Thank you, it helped alot. I had to edit some bits and bobs in JS file in order to make all the circles work.

Could you create a PR with your changes on my fork?
