Hi Shahbaz, Even I'm developing an online test application but with ASP.NET and SQL Server. I have a timer to display the time for each question. How do I prevent a user from refreshing the page as the timer gets reset on page refresh ? Or is there any way wherein I can retain the time even on page refresh ?
Thanks in advance, Keerthy --- Shahbaz Hussain <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > hey Seetha!!! > > its so simple.... wot eva server side technology you > use... you should understand the requirements....... > well i've done it with ASP. but i dont have actual > source code... i had done it for my previous > employer.... but i can tell you the logic.... oks.. > follow these steps. > > 1.
