        $(document).ready(function () {

            shortly.setSeconds(shortly.getSeconds() + 5.5);
            $('#shortly').countdown('change', { until: shortly });
        });

        function liftOff() {
            // refresh the page  
            window.location = window.location;

<body>
    <form id="form1" runat="server">
    <span id="shortly"></span>
    </form>
</body>
</html>

I’ve got the jquery.countdown.js in the Scriptsmap of visual studio. Also the stylesheet “jquery.countdown.css” is in the project.

Don’t have a clue about what the problem could be. I’m kind of new to jquery and trying to learn it.

    I’m not familiar with this countdown plugin, but, try moving the part

        $('#shortly').countdown({ until: shortly,
        onExpiry: liftOff, layout: "{ps} seconds to go"
    });

    into the function passed to $(document).ready, replacing $('#shortly').countdown('change', { until: shortly });

    Because otherwise the shortly var is not initialized when you’re trying to use it.
