start and stop have unexpected behaviors

The reason for this is because that is not technically a page-open timer. When an instance of TimeCircles is given neither a date nor a timer, it sets the current date as the comparison date. If you were to do something like: <div id="PageOpenTimer" data-timer="0"> you should get the effect you're going for.

[edit] I haven't tested this, if it doesn't work- please let me know.
The way you describe it working is not "wrong" for the code sample, it would be wrong if you set the data-timer attribute.

Could you please look into issue #10 for me....thanks!!!

@wimbarelds thanks for answer this. One other question, when I hit stop, how can get the total time? Is there an event for that?

There's not a documented / straightforward way, but you should be able to do this:

$("#PageOpenTimer").TimeCircles().foreach(function(instance) {
    var time = instance.timeLeft();
});
