The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

How to adapt a this javascript timer to submit a page?

Asked by marcoloppo in JavaScript, Scripting Languages, JScript

Tags: ,

Hi,
This submit timer script shows in a input textfield a timer that is showed until 60 seconds and after it is restarted, I would like to know how to adapt this script to show the timer until the amount of seconds I configure (in tDiff variable). In the example below I configured it to 120 seconds but it is restarted in 60 seconds and begins to count again from 0 (even so the page is still submited in 120 seconds).

How to make this change? Thank you.Start Free Trial
