Hi,
the setTimeout will only be called once. If you want to do a endless
loop you need to use setInterval. If you want to change parameters
later then you can delete an interval using its token which is
returned when you create it:
// Create:
var myInterval = setInterval(function, refreshRate);
// Delete:
clearInterval(myInterval);
Best regards,
Benjamin
