Hello...
I have a quiz application based on PHP.
I use paging, which is showing only one question per page.
I want to set a time limitation on the application.
The problem is that when i do refresh the page then javascript countdown timer start from starting.
What i want to do is i want the time limitation only loaded once at the beginning. though we move to the prev or next page, the time will keep on counting without being started again.
Can you help me with this?
Many thanks for the helps....PLZZZZZZZZZZZZZZz send me changes in code so that i can deposit my project upto 3rd aug 07.

I don't think you can do that, unless you can store the elapsed time in a cookie.

For security reasons, you should not have control over the user's refresh, forward, and back buttons.

I just realized the utter impossibility of doing this and making it fair.

You do not have control over the following:
- The browser the student has.
- The Internet Service Provider the student subscribes to.
- Whether the ISP burdens users with popups in exchange for free or low-cost service.
- Security settings.
- Firewalls.
- Traffic loading on the ISP.

So I can see some problems:

- The page stops loading in the middle, but the timer starts.

- The page loads, but JavaScript is turned off.

- The page loads except for the script.
