Madatan Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 Difficult to sum it up in the title perhaps... Anyway, I have a php script thats being refreshed every 5 seconds by a javascript. Now I want to include this php script on several other pages on the site. But currently when I'm using an ajax function or normal iframes the included page will refresh the entire site and not just itself. Simply put, how can I include a file without it doing anything with the page its included on? Thanks for any help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bendude14 Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 including it as an iframe should allow you to just update the content within the IFrame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madatan Posted July 23, 2009 Author Share Posted July 23, 2009 Yeah I thought so too, and thus I did it as an iframe at first. But it refreshed the entire web browser every 5 second, which screwed up everything thats not within the iframe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bendude14 Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 you would need to use ajax to re-polulate the IFrame, thinking on if you are using Ajax it don't even need to be in an IFrame at all. Just use ajax to call your php script at regular intervals repopulating the page as needed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy-H Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 getElementById('id').innerHTML ??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bendude14 Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 getElementById('id').innerHTML ??? Yes this would be how you would update the div once you had recieved the new content from your script.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
