Teaches date() and number manipulation.

<?
  $EVENTMONTH = "9";
  $EVENTDAY   = "25";
  
  $NOWMONTH   = date("m");
  $NOWDAY     = date("d");
  
  $DIFFMONTH  = $EVENTMONTH - $NOWMONTH;
  $DIFFDAY    = $EVENTDAY   - $NOWDAY;
?>

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="datatypes/stylesheet.css" />

<html>
  <head>
    <title>Joe's Birthday Countdown</title>
  </head>
  <body>
    <center>
      <h1>Joe's Birthday Countdown</h1>
      <? echo("$DIFFMONTH"); ?> months.<br />
      <? echo("$DIFFDAY"); ?> days.<br />
    </center>
  </body>

Why not a java applet then? Not quite JS. :P
