Default ScoobyLive Ticker - Issue with Safari

The ticker on the ScoobyLive banner is showing the following:

daysNaN hrsNaN minsNaN secsNaN

instead of the countdown until 9am on Sunday 27th May.

Firefox on Mac does not seem to have an issue, so yet again it's safari being picky.

I've saved a copy of the page and will try and work out what is wrong, but by JS skills are a tiny bit rusty

After some advise from my friend Jim (Thanks buddy ) I put the ticker into debug mode and we found the issue. It is will the following line:

Code:
create_counter(document.getElementById('my_counter'), 'May 27, 2007, 9:00:00');
The problem is the comma after the year, if you remove the comman then the debug routine does not have an issue, and when debug mode Safari displays the correct countdown time.

The clue was in the debug message itself as it lists the current local (GMT) time, and the value it listed showed the correct layout, ie; no trailing comma after the year.
