[ANSWERED]: Realtime Timer display in Control Page?

Not sure if this can be done but if not please consider this a feature request :D

I would like to be able to display a realtime timer on a control page. Say for example an event happened at 14:02:15 and the time is now 14:07:45, I would like to be able to display something like, Elapsed: 05:30 mins. So whenever the event time gets updated, the control page would calculate the elapsed time (base on the current time) without any update of the Indigo server having to occur.

At the moment my plugin does a check and update of the device every five seconds which would be unnecessary, more efficient and accurate if I could use a mechanism such as the above.

I think something like this could also be applied to the energy monitor displays in Indigo where at the moment it shows e.g. Last Reset 12 hours 45 mins ago which is only accurate with reference to the Last Update date and time.

Thanks for considering :)
