Answer 1

Yes, because theDate has a function level scope.

Answer 2

var theDate = "";
$(document).ready(function(){
// Get value on button click and show alert
$("#myBtn").click(function(){
var dd = $('#date').val();
var mm=$('#month').val();
var yy=$('#year').val();
var h=$('#hours').val();
var m=$('#minutes').val();
var s=$('#seconds').val();

theDate+=dd+mm+yy+" "+h+":"+m+":"+s;
});
});

var countDownDate = new Date(theDate).getTime();
