PerformanceNavigationTiming

The PerformanceNavigationTiming interface provides methods and properties to store and retrieve high resolution timestamps or metrics regarding the browser's document navigation events. For example, this interface can be used to determine how much time it takes to load or unload a document.

This interface extends the following PerformanceEntry properties by qualifying and constraining the property values for performance entries with a "navigation" entry type.

• PerformanceEntry.entryType - Set to "navigation".
• PerformanceEntry.name - Set to the string "document".
• PerformanceEntry.startTime - Set to a timestamp with a value of "0".
• PerformanceEntry.duration - Set to the timestamp that is the difference between the PerformanceNavigationTiming.loadEventEnd and PerformanceEntry.startTime properties, respectively.
