At the aanual Danish Bridge Festival we have been using a bridge
clock which is okay, but not completely userfriendly. Therefore I
have written a script that runs one or more clocks and which I
find easier to use.

It is written in PHP which runs on a webserver, but once the
webpage has been opened in a browser, it runs only JavaScript
locally on the computer, and the internet connection is no longer
necessary. It is in fact possible to save the page as pure HTML
so it doesn't need the internet at all - but then the titles,
times and colours cannot be changed.

The main page is here:

http://bridge.lundhansen.dk/bridgeclock/bridgeclock.php

The setup page is here:

http://bridge.lundhansen.dk/bridgeclock/bridgeclock_setup.php

A zipfile with the necessary files is here:

http://bridge.lundhansen.dk/bridgeclock/bridgeclock.zip

Anybody can use the files with no restrictions.

I might add that the pages are only meant as a demo. You may of
course run the clock from the page, but someone else may change
the setup at any time.

This is fantastic. I used it today for my flighted game (open and novice
sections with different time requirements).

Okay. If you want to keep using it, I can put the program in a
special folder the name of which is known only to you (and me).
That way noone will interfere with your setup.

Of course, if you have a webhotel or a webserver yourself, you
can download the zipfile and place the files yourself. There is
no install. The files just need to reside in the same folder.

Thanks, but no need to make a folder. I can upload it to my own web server.

Looks great - thanks for sharing! Have you considered uploading the source to GitHub or someplace like that?
