I’ve been using the server side timer often. It’s a great feature.

Today I’m seeing some weirdness. I have the timer going and the row is orange, but the timer doesn’t update while on the page. When I browse away and come back it shows that it has been keeping time though.

Any ideas?

First, the timer should only be updating once a minute. It doesn’t update each second (as it used to). Some customers have been confused by this new behavior.

If you’re sitting on the page for minutes at a time and don’t see it updating then there’s a problem elsewhere – maybe a Javascript issue. If that’s the case please let me know your browser / version / operating system and I’ll try to look into it in more depth.

Right. I’m aware that it’s by the minute. It was sticking on the same minute (not updating after several minutes). It’s worked fine for several days. I just noticed the strange behavior today.
