killah Posted March 28, 2009 Share Posted March 28, 2009 Well, i currently have a javascript code. It count's down from 10 minute's to 0. I can syncronize the count down to the database. But exactly how do i update the database per second using the javascript code? <?php $x_m = '10 '; $x_s = '59 '; ?> <script language="javascript"> var x_m = <?php echo $x_m; ?> function startClockMinutes() { if(x_m !== 0) { x_m = x_m - 1 document.frm.clock_minutes.value = x_m + ' minute(s)' setTimeout("startClockMinutes()", 58999) } if(x_m == 0) { x_m = 9 document.frm.clock_minutes.value = x_m + ' minute(s)' } } var x_s = <?php echo $x_s; ?> function startClockSeconds() { if(x_s !== 0) { x_s = x_s - 1 document.frm.clock_seconds.value = x_s + ' seconds left' setTimeout("startClockSeconds()",1000) } if(x_s == 0) { x_s = 59 document.frm.clock_seconds.value = x_s + ' seconds left' } } var times = 0 function set_times() { times = times + 1 document.frm.times.value = times + ' times' setTimeout("set_times()",1000) } </script> <body onload="startClockSeconds(); startClockMinutes(); set_times();"> <form name="frm"> <input type="text" name="clock_minutes" readonly size="9" /> <input type="text" readonly style="text-align: center;" value="&" size="1" /> <input type="text" name="clock_seconds" readonly size="12" /><br /> <input type="text" name="times" readonly size="4" /><br /> </form> You might see some wierd thing's. But it's for testing right now only. So can anyone tell me how i can update the database per second? If i can find that out, i can do the per minute one.

RichardRotterdam Posted March 28, 2009 Share Posted March 28, 2009 So can anyone tell me how i can update the database per second? If i can find that out, i can do the per minute one. You could do an ajax call every sec or min. Just a questions, is there a reason you are using javascript for this instead of using a cron job?

killah Posted March 28, 2009 Author Share Posted March 28, 2009 [..]Just a questions, is there a reason you are using javascript for this instead of using a cron job? Yes, i would like to let the user know when the next update is. Can you provide the ajax script which will update every second?
