CountDown timer about timer.jquery

You can use the Timed Events

Start a timer and execute a function after a certain duration. You can use this to simulate a timed event.

//start a timer & execute a function in 5 minutes & 30 seconds
$('#div-id').timer({
duration: '5m30s',
callback: function() {
alert('Time up!');
}
});

Thanks @shacow :)

Hi @almasn86 in case you had meant like a reverse timer, then the following will start a timer in a div with id=timer and it will countdown from 5 minutes and go on to 0 seconds:

$('#timer').timer({
    countdown: true,
    duration: '5m'
});

You can change the 5m to 5s to start at 5 seconds instead of 5 minutes. Either ways, once the timer reaches 0 seconds, it will show an alert box by default. You can override this by passing a custom callback to the plugin:

$('#timer').timer({
    countdown: true,
    duration: '5s',
    callback: function() {
        console.log('done');
    }
});

This will output done in the console after counting down 5 seconds. Hope this helps!
