countdown is not working jquery

Question

I am using Countdown Plugin. I am trying to set a countdown say : Since 06/17/2012 Until 06/18/2012 . For this i tried :

 var start = new Date(2012, 06 - 1, 17);
 var  end = new Date(2012, 06 - 1, 18);

 $('div').countdown({ since: start, until: end });

But it shows all ( Hours , Mins, Secs ) ( 0 0 0). What i am doing wrong?

EDIT

It was just a typing mistake but i used new Date(year , month , Date) in my code.

have you run a debug to check the values of start and end before they are passed into your plugin? — Gaz Winter, Jun 18 '12 at 10:52
have you tried to reverse it $('div').countdown({ since: end, until: start }); — Furqan Hameedi, Jun 18 '12 at 10:53
have you tried giving your div an id and accessing it that way? Like $('#countdown').countdown({ since: start, until: end }); — Gaz Winter, Jun 18 '12 at 10:55

The Date object works like:

new Date(year, month, day);

The variable name end is creating the problem, please change it to something like the below code :-

  var start = new Date(17, 06 - 1, 2012);
  var  endDate = new Date(18, 06 - 1, 2012);

  $('div').countdown({ since: start, until: endDate });

Working Demo http://jsfiddle.net/cUW4M/16/ or http://jsfiddle.net/cUW4M/15/

Please see my previous reply here: jQuery Countdown Plugin - only show non-zero periods

Hope this helps,

Script

<script type="text/javascript" src="http://keith-wood.name/js/jquery.countdown.js"></script>

code

var start = new Date(2012, 06 - 1, 17);
 var  end = new Date(2012, 06 - 1, 18);

 $('div').countdown({since: start, until: end }); //until: 0 to get zeros
