RE: Calculating Page Load Time

Agreed!  Excellent forum!

Sorry. :)  I'm somewhat of a noob and I recently found the browser.Busy
property and thought you might be able to use it.  For example: after
getting the start time of the initial hit, start a timer that keeps checking
browser.Busy, every 250 milliseconds.  When the browser is no longer busy
stop the timer.

browser.Busy info here:

Subject: RE: [wdf-dom] Calculating Page Load Time

I love this forum. It never fails to suprise me.

Post a question and bang you receive answers and really good ones :)

Thanks Guys :)

@James Childers - As Ryan has pointed out onLoad doesn't fire until all of
the content (including external content like style sheets, iframes, etc) has
been downloaded. So, your claim is incorrect.

@Schwartz Stan - I didn't understand what you were trying to say :)

@Ryan Hicks - Thank you for your suggestions. Everything makes sense (and at
least this way I would roughly get an idea of the page load time). Or at
least when the page is usable by the user. Just one thing - what do you mean
by "all content is download and initialized"? Download is fine but could you
please elaborate on initialized?

@Chris - Thanks for all the support Chris and also some more insight into
how I could make this better.

Basically, most of my userbase is on dial up. So, every single kilobyte
makes a difference. My task is to cut on the page size (and increase
download speed - at least speed the usable page download time). For doing
tests I need to know how much time the original page took and then once I
start cutting down on the code, I need to check with the earlier time. So, I
was trying to come up with something that would give me an idea of how good
/ bad job I have done :)

Thank you,
Mandy.
