Inspired by the new Themeforest template category I decided to create a PHP script which will allow you to manage your “Under Construction” pages much more efficiently. It will allow you to set the countdown timer and easily add progress updates at any time.

The Under Construction Builder is completely flat-file driven and comes with an admin interface which allows you to:

Configure the countdown timer Add progress updates in percent Add progress update status messages Completely flat-file driven – no database required! It also comes with a PHP include file which will allow you to:

Show the countdown timer anywhere on a page Show the current progress anywhere on a page Show all previous progress messages anywhere on a page In the event of the user’s browser having Javascript disabled a static counter will be displayed and a non-animated panel will show and hide the previous progress updates.

Use the basic template supplied and style it to your liking, or easily integrate the code into an existing “Under Construction” page.

All of the code is extensively commented and should (i hope!) be easy enough to modify. It is styled entirely by CSS which should make it easy to style to fit your website design.
