Notes

(1) The colons between the Days, Hours, Minutes and Seconds are too large for some reason. I am going to assume it is  some interaction between QuickBase's and FlipClock's CSS and is easy to fix.

(3) I also have an Odomoter solution if you are interested:

I like this. Good idea...

How about a button which should display how a counter of how long this task has been opened for.

I have a button after clocking in it says In since 8:58 pm. I would like it to say 00:00 and show live by seconds and minutes.

My button formula is: (originally from ABC Project management) 

var text gray = "<a style=\" text-decoration: none; background: #c2c2c2; border-radius: 5px; color: #fff; display: inline-block; width: 150px; text-align: center; padding: 8px 20px; font: normal 700 14px/1 \"Calibri\", sans-serif; text-shadow: none; \">Checked Out</a>";

var text green = "<a style=\" text-decoration: none; background: #34a853; border-radius: 5px; color: #fff; display: inline-block; text-align: center; width: 150px; padding: 8px 20px; font: normal 700 14px/1 \"Calibri\", sans-serif; text-shadow: none; \">In since "&[Time-In]&"</a>";

If([Maximum Record ID# In]>[Maximum Record ID# Out],$green,$gray)

Is this something easy?
