How do I have custom item record responses when time elapses? (case 5079)

Hi gnik68. I've attached a slightly updated version of your html. I've added one line of code at the top, <body onload="setTimeout ('document.forms[0].submit()', 600000)">. This will set your custom item to automatically post the entered data after X time has elapsed. In this case it would submit after 10 minutes have elapsed, regardless of whether the continue button is pressed. You can change the 600000 to any number you'd like (I'd suggest setting it to a smaller value to test the code and ensure that the data are recording properly). I hope that helps!
