Paul, you can use the window object, specifically the
window.setInterval() function, in combination with one of the Ajax
abstraction methods:
var requestInformation = function () {
$.getJSON(url,input,function(output){
$("#infobox").empty().append("<p>"+output.data+"</p>");
});
}
// Request information every 6 seconds (6000ms)
window.setInterval(requestInformation,6000);
