Abstract

A system and method for assembling timing data in a multi-layer server environment are disclosed. An HTML based request is generated. A time of generation of the HTML based request is then deposited in one or more hidden data fields associated with the HTML based request. The HTML based request is forwarded to one or more servers that deposit an arrival time in the one or more hidden data fields. Next, an HTML based response is generated. The arrival times provided by the one or more servers are transferred to one or more hidden data fields associated with the HTML based response. The HTML based response is forwarded to one or more servers that deposit a departure time in the one or more hidden data fields associated with the HTML based response.
