Can jQuery countdown be set to count negative time? This feature would be very useful for applications like an online exam/quiz where the user can see how much longer than the allocated time he/she takes to complete the test.

Thanks.

You can count using "since" or "until". Not sure how negative would work. You might want to make an issue on http://plugins.jquery.com/project/countdown2 .

Negative does not work - a negative # sets the counter to 0:00.
Thanks for your response.

Yeah, shoot an issue over to http://plugins.jquery.com/project/countdown2 so that the developer behind jQuery Countdown would know more.
