One of your promotions "Expand Your Boundries" has "Expires in NaN Hour" It's been saying that since 3/8/2007

Shows Expires in 9 hours here.

NaN stands for Not a Number. Could be you caught it at a week moment when changing itself.

Does it still show NaN?

Norm,
Yes for me it still says that. I refreshed the screen with the same results. Anyone else see this?

Norm,

The NaN hours only shows if your using Firefox. It does not show using Internet Explorer.

I've noticed that all of the past "Expires in" things are client-side scripts, meaning what you see depends on your browser and/or time and date settings. So you could set your computer's time back and the "Expires in" value would change to appear as though more time is left than really is.


Server-side would solve the problem, as the value could be calculated based on Caligari (Pacific) time and then simple text/HTML sent with the page, which would show up the same for everyone on any browser in any part of the world.
