countdown timer not appearing on screen (case 12356)

    countdown timer not appearing on screen (case 12356)

    Hello,

    I need a 5 minute (300 seconds) countdown timer for an essay response. I've tried to embed it in the exp file (i.e., parameter set at (d-300)), but for some reason it's still not appearing on the screen. I've looked at other threads but can't seem to figure out the reason why this might be so.

    Any help would be much appreciated.

    Cheers,

    Nick

    Nick,

    Would you mind please uploading your .exp and .que files to this forum thread? I'd be happy to take a look at them.

    hmm for some reason I can't upload my attached files. A red "!" icon appears each time I try. Is there a way around this?

    It's odd - the countdown clock shows up the second time on the screen. It's as if it's repeating the que file even though I've only called on it once in the exp files.

    Try putting all of your files into a single zip folder and uploading it. Or you can send them to me directly in an email to support@empirisoft.com; if you do this please put "case 12356" in the subject line.
