I can't figure it out, hope there is a simple solution but I can't see where is this script failing. This script is a part from a wp plugin, but where it fails there is no wp code.
what it does is count to an end date and print it on screen. The line:
amount = (dateFuture.getTime() - dateNow.getTime()+5);
is showing a negative number, so It's impossible, future date is "2014-10-23 23:00:00" and the current date and time in my country is "2014-10-23 20:00:00" cannot be < 0 if dateFuture - dateNow. Code fails when is the actual date (2014-10-23) but no the hour. i.e. the actual day always shows Day: 0, Hour: 0, Mins: 0, Secs: 0. It's working properly if the day is a future day.
Thanks a lot for your help and time in advance.

This line is wrong:
var dateFuture = new Date(<?php print date("Y", $strTime) ?>,<?php print (date("m", $strTime)-1) ?>,<?php print date("d", $strTime) ?>,<?php print date("h", $strTime) ?>,<?php print date("i", $strTime) ?>,<?php print date("s", $strTime) ?>);
You want don't want
<?php print date("h", $strTime) ?>
You want
<?php print date("H", $strTime) ?>
In other words you want 0-23 hours, not the 1-12 hours.
