A miniscule plugin to allow an element to "count up" to a number

jquery.countup.js

$.fn.countUp = function(timing) {
  var max = parseInt(this.text());
  if ( !max ) return false;
  var i     = 0;
  var $this = this;
  var delay = timing / max ;
  var intv  = setInterval(function() {
    $this.text(i);
    if (i === max) return clearInterval(intv);
    i++;
  }, delay);
};
