CGI Script - Countdown timer

[Chuck Gwilliam]

My web hosting provider gives a CGI script for a coutdown
timer. How can I put this onto a FrontPage 2003 page? The
script is as follows:

<applet code="countdown.class"
CODEBASE="http://gwilly.com/java-sys" width="203"
height="21">
<param name="font" value="lcdb0">
<param name="year" value=2005>
<param name="month" value=1>
<param name="day" value=3>
<param name="hour" value=1>
</applet>

Thanks in advance to anyone who can help with this.

Chuck,

This is a java applet and can be pasted anywhere you want the applet to
appear. Since the class file resides on another server, you would need to
test with File > Preview in Browser or publish to a live server.

In addition to JDR's comments, you, and all your users, will also need to
have a Java Virtual Machine (JVM) installed. Windows XP and IE6 do not have
a JVM unless it is downloaded from Sun's website at www.java.com . Will
your users want to download it?

Thanks to both of you. I got it working. Good question
about other users wanting to download the JVM.

Is there any other way of getting a countdown clock like
this using a scripting method that wouldn't require a 3rd
party add on program like JVM?
