Thanks for the post Ian, but that wasn't quite what I wanted. Here's the
full code if anyone cares for it. It's a bit of a kludge, but it does what I
want. Just drop the code into a js file and call it like so:
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/JavaScript"
src="includes/countdown.js"></script>
------------------
var targetURL="index.cfm?logout"
//time in seconds
var countDownInterval=1800;
var message="Logout in";
var countDownTime=countDownInterval+1;
function countDown(){
countDownTime--;
if (countDownTime <=0){
countDownTime=countDownInterval;
clearTimeout(counter)
window.location=targetURL
return
}
if (document.all) //if IE 4+
document.all.countDownText.innerText =
secToMin(countDownTime)+" ";
else if (document.getElementById) //else if NS6+
document.getElementById("countDownText").innerHTML=secToMin(countDownTime)
+" "
else if (document.layers){ //TEXT FOR NS4.x
document.c_redirect.document.c_redirect2.document.write(message
+ ' <b
id="countDownText">'+secToMin(countDownTime)+' </b> seconds')
document.c_redirect.document.c_redirect2.document.close()
}
counter=setTimeout("countDown()", 1000);
}
function startit(){
if (document.all||document.getElementById) { //TEXT FOR IE
document.write(message + ' <b id="countDownText">' +
secToMin(countDownTime) +' </b> seconds');
countDown();
}
}
function secToMin (theseconds) {
var theTime = new String();
var minutes = Math.floor(countDownTime / 60)
var seconds = countDownTime % 60
theTime = minutes + " Minutes " + seconds;
return theTime;
}
if (document.all||document.getElementById)
startit()
else
window.onload=startit
