Hi All -

I'm trying to use JQuery for use in a countdown timer on my joomla site. In looking at my page's head section, it appears everything is correct. The head looks like this:
<head>

<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
<meta name="robots" content="index, follow" />
<meta name="keywords" content="joomla, Joomla" />
<meta name="title" content="Ascent" />
<meta name="author" content="Administrator" />
<meta name="description" content="Joomla! - the dynamic portal engine and content management system" />
<meta name="generator" content="Joomla! 1.5 - Open Source Content Management; Joomla jQuery plugin by http://www.corejoomla.com" />

<title>Ascent</title>

<script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.5.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="/blackcanyonraceseries/plugins/corejoomla/jquery/jquery.noconflict.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="/blackcanyonraceseries/media/system/js/jquery.countdown.js"></script>


<link rel="stylesheet" href="/blackcanyonraceseries/templates/system/css/system.css" type="text/css" />
<link rel="stylesheet" href="/blackcanyonraceseries/templates/system/css/general.css" type="text/css" />
<link rel="stylesheet" href="/blackcanyonraceseries/templates/blackcanyonracesinfo/css/default.css" type="text/css" />

<script type="text/javascript">
$(function () {
$('#countdown').countdown({until:$.countdown.UTCDate(-6, 2011, 4, 14), format: 'DHMS', layout:
'<div id="timer">' +
'<div id="timer_days" class="timer_numbers">{dnn}</div>'+
'<div id="timer_hours" class="timer_numbers">{hnn}</div>'+
'<div id="timer_mins" class="timer_numbers">{mnn}</div>'+
'<div id="timer_seconds" class="timer_numbers">{snn}</div>'+
'<div id="timer_labels">'+
'<div id="timer_days_label" class="timer_labels">days</div>'+
'<div id="timer_hours_label" class="timer_labels">hours</div>'+
'<div id="timer_mins_label" class="timer_labels">mins</div>'+
'<div id="timer_seconds_label" class="timer_labels">secs</div>'+
'</div>'+
'</div>'

});
});
</script>
</head>


Nothing appearing in the countdown div. Have I used the jquery plugin correctly?

Any other thoughts. Thanks :)
