This should be

<script type="text/javascript">

TargetDate = "01/01/2011 0:00 AM";
		BackColor = "#fff4e5";
		ForeColor = "white";
		CountActive = true;
		CountStepper = -1;
		LeadingZero = true;
		DisplayFormat = "%%D%% days, %%H%% hours, %%M%% minutes and %%S%% seconds remaining until 2011!";
		FinishMessage = "The Staff wishes everyone a happy newyear!";

instead of having tons of global variables, it's much cleaner and better
