I suspect the code you posted may not reflect what you're using. In any case, I
wouldn't recommend doing all the comparisons of days, hours, minutes and seconds
to tell if an auction has ended. You've got the end date/time ("deadline") and
you know what the current date/time are (Now()). Just compare the two and be
done with it. Use the modulo operator to break the time left into days, hours,
minutes, seconds.
<cfset deadline = "02/18/2003 10:28 PM">
<cfscript>
dtogo = DateDiff("d", Now(), deadline);
htogo = DateDiff("h", Now(), deadline) mod 24;
mtogo = DateDiff("n", Now(), deadline) mod 60;
stogo = DateDiff("s", Now(), deadline) mod 60;
</cfscript>
<cfif Now() gte deadline>
Too late. The auction has ended.<br>
Days: 0<br>
Hours: 0<br>
Minutes: 0<br>
Seconds: 0<br>
<cfelse>
<cfoutput>
Days: <cfif dtogo lt 1>Last Day!<cfelse>#dtogo#</cfif><br>
Hours: <cfif htogo lt 1>Last Hour!<cfelse>#htogo#</cfif><br>
Minutes: <cfif mtogo lt 1>Last Minute!<cfelse>#mtogo#</cfif><br>
Seconds: #stogo#<br>
</cfoutput>
</cfif>
