you could do something like this:

place the following in the < head > section of your page:


<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="javascript">
loadtime="0"
loading=true
s="s"

{refresh()}

function refresh()
{setTimeout("count()",250)}

function count()
{if (loading)
{loadtime=loadtime+++0.25;refresh()}}

function done()
{if (loadtime==1)
{s=""}
document.write("It took "+loadtime+" second"+s+" to load the page");loading=false}
</script>

then, modify your < body > tag to add the onLoad function:


<body onLoad="done()">

hope that works!

Wow, that is a nice script Liam. Did you write that yourself?

Also... you can also define the onLoad command inside the original script instead of the body tag if you wanted to :)

Well I don't have time to test it out, but I take your word it works because I see no point in you posted code you tested, but it didn't work :P

:A+: I might find this useful in the future now that I think about it. I appreciate the time you spent to write this :)
