[Resolved] how can i add a page generated speed in footer

[helz]

Ive seen on several forums at the bottom it says: Page generated in x.xxxxx seconds
how is this done?

Thanks for any assistance

They take the number of minutes it took to generate the page, and multiply that by sixty.

Edit: Oops, sorry, newbie forum.

Put $start = time() at the beginning and $finish = time() at the end. Then $total_time = $finish - $start. Use microtime() for more accruacy. There's a sample script on that manual page that does just what you're asking about.

Here's my header:

function microtime_float() {
   list($usec, $sec) = explode(" ", microtime());
   return ((float)$usec + (float)$sec);
}

$startexecution=microtime_float();

And the footer:

$endexecution=microtime_float();
$timer=$endexecution-$startexecution;

?>

Page rendered in <?=$timer ?> seconds.

I believe that it's basically just implemented from the manual, as Installer suggests...

ah i see
I rounded it off to 6sf using:
round($time,6);
thats a kool neat trick with the copyright, automatically sets the current year
very nice!
