including the remaining MS:

function destructMS(milli) {
  if (isNaN(milli) || milli < 0) {
    return null;
  }

  var d, h, m, s, ms;
  s = Math.floor(milli / 1000);
  m = Math.floor(s / 60);
  s = s % 60;
  h = Math.floor(m / 60);
  m = m % 60;
  d = Math.floor(h / 24);
  h = h % 24;
  ms = Math.floor((milli % 1000) * 1000) / 1000;
  return { d: d, h: h, m: m, s: s, ms: ms };
}
destructMS(10034)
//=> { d: 0, h: 0, m: 0, s: 10, ms: 34 }

var timer;

var compareDate = new Date();
compareDate.setDate(compareDate.getDate() + 7); //just for this demo today + 7 days

timer = setInterval(function() {
timeBetweenDates(compareDate);
}, 1000);

function timeBetweenDates(toDate) {
var dateEntered = toDate;
var now = new Date();
var difference = dateEntered.getTime() - now.getTime();

if (difference <= 0) {

// Timer done
clearInterval(timer);

} else {

var seconds = Math.floor(difference / 1000);
var minutes = Math.floor(seconds / 60);
var hours = Math.floor(minutes / 60);

$("#days").text(days);
