Hi,

Not sure I fully understand your question.

  • reload executes the script
  • now()  returns the a timestamp of the current time from the system clock

Maybe you were thinking of the ReloadTime() function that returns a timestamp for when the script last finished reexecuting.

Exactly. I want the diffrenece b/w reloadtime() and now(). I got it now. But

if we use reloadtime() in UI it will give current time and if we use same in script it will give last reloadtime. Any specific reason for that.
