I have a very simple gadget I am trying to write. It's for myself (Not
really to be shared with others) that simply displays a webcam I set
up in my apartment in order to make sure my cat is okay during the hot
days of summer (I worry). Getting the image is no problem - it's
simply uploaded as an FTP once every 30 seconds... displaying it is no
problem... But refreshing it is the problem.
I am trying something like this (This displays a public webcam of
clearwater beach in florida) :
function refresh(){
html = "<img src=http://www.beachtourism.com/webcams/capture2.jpg'
width='300'>";
_gel("display").innerHTML = html;
setTimeout(refresh(), 15000);
}
I would think that would work, since all it does is show the webcam
image, wait for 15 seconds and shows the image again... but the
browser complains about too much recursion (Which makes sense, since
this is a recursive function). How do I make it work?
I know this has probably been asked many times (I did a search) but
none of the explanations made sense to me as I read through them...
