Page Generation Time Script - A script to tell how long it took to generate

Albus Dumbledore

this is a script used to tell you or visitors how fast your page was generated for the person who is viewing it...

Ok it is verry simple!! all you have to do is put this script on every page... that you want it to be on

CODE

<?php

$starttime = explode(' ', microtime());
$starttime = $starttime[1] + $starttime[0];

?>

and put it before everything on the page, for me i put it right underneith the DOCTYPE script which i think is a bloody waste of space to have it on there, but anyways.. i put it right below that and it works fine!!

now where you want the time it took for the page to load to show put this script, generally at the bottom of the page, i put it at the evrry end right before the </html> tag

CODE

<?php

$mtime = explode(' ', microtime());
$totaltime = $mtime[0] + $mtime[1] - $starttime;
printf('Page loaded in %.3f seconds.', $totaltime);

?>

you can center that, put a box around it and all that change the text of what it shows wether it shows Page Generated in.... or if it says somthing else simply edit the stuff in bold here

QUOTE

<?php

$mtime = explode(' ', microtime());
$totaltime = $mtime[0] + $mtime[1] - $starttime;
printf('Page loaded in %.3f seconds.', $totaltime);

?>

ALSO, please note that the page you are putting this code on should be a .php oage because it is a php script that it is being used

Hi, I think you're actually wrong. The script doesn't tell how fast the page loads for each visitor, but how fast the page is generated. "Page loaded in 0.371 seconds" would be very fast, and I would love that the internet was that fast. But I think it's the time the page is generated in. Correct me if i'm wrong

Anyway, thanks for the code, it might be useful, and I may use it

Whever you enter PHP code, that file should be saved as file_name.php otherwise it won't execute the program code.

I think this is the time it takes for the page to generate, not load. After all, the php is purely server side, and once the page is generated by the server it cannot report back (unless you tell it to with a seperate frame and using javascript perhaps). After the page is generated, it is sent to the user where the user needs to download it, including all images, and the server cannot know the user's connection speed, etc. Still, an interesting script that would be cool to develop on with javascript (onload) so that it truly shows the loading time.

it basicly tells you how long it took the server to generate the page that the user is viewing...and how it works is i dunno, i believe it pings the server and however long it takes to respond it posts it there...and i do not think it will delay your page any longer than it allready does..it jsut depends on what the script has to do

Ok thank you

well to be honest, i do not know why....maybe it is possible that the page took 0.000 seconds to load... i took your page and put it on my server and it showed the same way, i added a doctype, in which your page didn't have, and it still didn't work...i took everything off of your page and put my own content and it still shows the same thing..maybe it is because you dont have that many images on your site, i will do more looking into it and post if i come up with anything
