    <!--

    function InitializeTimer ()
    {
    // Set the length of the timer, in seconds
    secs = 300
    StopTheClock()
    StartTheTimer()
    }

    function StopTheClock()
    {
    if(timerRunning )
    clearTimeout(ti merID)
    timerRunning = false
    }

    function StartTheTimer()
    {
    if (secs==0)
    {
    StopTheClock()
    // Here's where you put something useful that's
    // supposed to happen after the allotted time.
    // For example, you could display a message:
    alert("De tijd is voorbij. Druk op ok en daarna op opslaan")
    }
    else
    {
    self.status = secs
    secs = secs - 1
    timerRunning = true
    timerID = self.setTimeout ("StartTheTimer ()", delay)
    }
    }
    //-->
    </SCRIPT>

    <body onLoad="Initial izeTimer()" >

      Gave the user an opportunity to recycle the timer - you can replace
      those lines with:

      clearInterval(t imerID);
      alert('De tijd is voorbij. Druk op ok en daarna op opslaan')
      document.getEle mentById('form1 ').submit();

      Sorry, don't speak Dutch. Timers are annoying btw.

          It's for an a social psychology experiment. People have 5 minutes to
          complete a job in a small team. Then after these 5 minutes a newcomer is
          introduced to the team. If someone would take longer to complete the task
          the data cannot be compared. Otherwise I would agree .. timers are annoying
          :-)
