such as http, ftp.

anybody knows this? thank you!

    um, i don't know if it's possible :S never tried... course anything is possible 🙂 i've heard of it being done in j.s. but i'm not sure how accurate it is... maybe search google for bandwidth speed test source or something to that effect...

      I downloaded a PHP script that did this once! Forget where I downloaded it tho, sorry! Maybe check hotscripts.

        by the way, who can decode this?

        ok here is the concept

        see all that junk... its just to take up space

        <script LANGUAGE="javascript">
<!--
time      = new Date();
starttime = time.getTime();
// --></SCRIPT>

        get to the browser first.. and is executed as soon as it gets there...

        then it has to wait for all the junk to transfer

        then it runs

        <script><!--
        time = new Date();
        endtime = time.getTime();
        ...
        ...

        depending on the browser you use this may be the case ( starttime gets set before endtime even gets sent to the browser )

        so it is a good trick at judging download speed for the random section
