try using script.aculo.us

Im pretty sure the script did work by the end of it? although i finalized outside forums. Its pretty simple to do without even changing the function anyway:

Only change from orignal is use of interval function to call it every so often.Code:// sets time between reloads in miliseconds setInterval(LoadPage("INFOFILE.php","DIVNAME"), 30000); function LoadPage(page,usediv) { // Set up request varible try {xmlhttp = window.XMLHttpRequest?new XMLHttpRequest(): new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");} catch (e) { alert("Error: Could not load page.");} //send data xmlhttp.onreadystatechange = function(){ //Check page is completed and there were no problems. if ((xmlhttp.readyState == 4) && (xmlhttp.status == 200)) { //Write data returned to page document.getElementById(usediv).innerHTML = xmlhttp.responseText; } } xmlhttp.open("GET", page); xmlhttp.send(null); }
Just chnage INFOFILE.php to the file name of the page you want to load from, and DIVNAME to the ID of the div you want to place the content returned in.
*other none essental changes made.
Removed, return false as served no purpous. Scroll to top, becuse it would be annoying, and page loading message since it would be in the way alot
Easy as pie

in the example it refresh's every 30 seconds, so you may need to make it shorter interval?
The code itself though should work? What JS errors is it giveing you?

it isnt erroring out anything it just leaves my div blank and loads nothing

To make a default page load on startup, put: Originally Posted by Colin-Roberts
