title: JavaScript countdown to MySQL datetime format
body: <p>I have a date that comes from a MySQL database in the <code>datetime</code> format, something like <code>2010-09-24 11:30:12</code>. And I need a way to show a countdown of hours:mins to that date.</p>
  
  <p>I'm not very familiar with dates in JavaScript so any help would be apreciated. Thanks.</p>
