[Solved] Live Update Get Request [closed]

by


I strongly advice to call the function again inside the success of the api call. A solution using setInterval may hammer the site even when it gives errors. Also the request can take longer than 2 second to execute

Here I use jQuery for simplicity’s sake

Use setTimeout inside the success: 

function getIt() { 
  $.get("url",function(data) { 
    $("#container").text(data); 
    setTimeout(getIt,2000);
  });
}
getIt();

If the URL is crossdomain, you may want to look into JSON and CORS:
