lblTime.Text = "Error:Server doesn't support performance counter";
btnSubmit.Enabled = false; } Session["Frequency"] = temp; } else {
if (QueryPerformanceCounter(out CurrentTime) && (long)Session["LastTime"] != 0) {
lblTime.Text = lblTime.Text + ((CurrentTime - (long)Session["LastTime"]) / (long)Session["Frequency"]).ToString() + "second since last click.<br>"; } else {
lblTime.Text = lblTime.Text + "Please click again.<br>"; } Session["LastTime"] = CurrentTime; } |
