setTimeout is supposed to loop, he's creating a repeater, like a running clock. But
he's using document.write which eliminates the ability to recall the script. My last
email shows the easiest way I know of getting that done. If you don't like using the
DIV, you can use a textbox and just alter the style so that there's no borders... and
it won't appear to be in a textbox. Also, if you start out with that DIV empty instead
of containing some text, remember that your script will need to createTextNode so that
there will be a node to alter.

Looks like SetTimeout Can only run once on a page...I took out the SetTimeOut
and it creates an infinite loop. Not sure the purpose of creating this loop, but
SetTimeout running multiple times is your issue.

Hello,
Can someone tell me why I'm getting an object expected error when I
run the following:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">
<html>
<head>
<title>Testing</title>
<script language="JavaScript">
function runMe(){
document.write("<cfoutput>#now()#</cfoutput>");
testingThis();
}
function testingThis(){
setTimeout('runMe()',2000);
}
</script>
</head>
<body onload="testingThis();">
</body>
</html>
---------------------------------------------------------------
It runs once and then after 2 seconds I get the error.
