title: Capture javascript stopwatch stop time and store it as php variable
body: <p>I'm using this stopwatch:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript"&gt;
  window.onload = function()
  {
    stopwatch('Start');
  }
  
  &lt;!--
  var sec = 0;
  var min = 0;
  var hour = 0;
  function stopwatch(text) {
     sec++;
    if (sec == 60) {
     sec = 0;
     min = min + 1; }
    else {
     min = min; }
    if (min == 60) {
     min = 0; 
     hour += 1; }
  
  if (sec&lt;=9) { sec = "0" + sec; }
     document.clock.stwa.value = ((hour&lt;=9) ? "0"+hour : hour) + " : " + ((min&lt;=9) ? "0" + min : min) + " : " + sec;
  
    if (text == "Start") { document.clock.theButton.value = "Stop "; }
    if (text == "Stop ") { document.clock.theButton.value = "Start"; }
  
    if (document.clock.theButton.value == "Start") {
     window.clearTimeout(SD);
     return true; }
  SD=window.setTimeout("stopwatch();", 1000);
  }
  
  function resetIt() {
    sec = -1;
    min = 0;
    hour = 0;
    if (document.clock.theButton.value == "Stop ") {
    document.clock.theButton.value = "Start"; }
    window.clearTimeout(SD);
   }
  // --&gt;
  &lt;/script&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>and would like to capture the time that the clock is stopped on, and then store it as a PHP variable so that I can insert it into our database along with a load of other PHP variables. Is this possible?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks for any help</p>
