Countdown Date & Time JavaScript

I need javascript to countdown a date but with time. I search a lot and find a solution. Here it is

You can use in your HTML file:

Dont worry! Only <script language="JavaScript">
TargetDate = "6/11/2010 1:00";
BackColor = "white";
ForeColor = "navy";
CountActive = true;
CountStepper = -1;
LeadingZero = true;
DisplayFormat = "%%D%% Day, %%H%% Hour, %%M%% Minute, %%S%% Second ";
FinishMessage = "World cup start..";
</script>
<script language="JavaScript" src="countdown.js"></script> left to begin World Cup 2010.

function calcage(secs, num1, num2) {
