I had to create a timer for teachers grading students  work  Here s one I used which is entirely based on elapsed time since the grading begun by storing the system time at the point that the page is loaded  and then comparing it every half second to the system time at that point   var startTime   Math floor Date now     1000     Get the starting time  right now  in seconds localStorage setItem  startTime   startTime      Store it if I want to restart the timer on the next page  function startTimeCounter         var now   Math floor Date now     1000      get the time now     var diff   now - startTime     diff in seconds between now and start     var m   Math floor diff   60      get minutes value  quotient of diff      var s   Math floor diff   60      get seconds value  remainder of diff      m   checkTime m      add a leading zero if it s single digit     s   checkTime s      add a leading zero if it s single digit     document getElementById  idName   innerHTML   m         s     update the element where the timer will appear     var t   setTimeout startTimeCounter  500      set a timeout to update the timer    function checkTime i        if  i  lt  10   i    0    i       add zero in front of numbers  lt  10     return i     startTimeCounter      This way  it really doesn t matter if the  setTimeout  is subject to execution delays  the elapsed time is always relative the system time when it first began  and the system time at the time of update
