I am newbie to AJAX and scriptaculous (I know and use php & js) with what I hope is easy question. I am building a new homepage for my company with the idea that a basic shell of links and other widgets is always in browser, but center section changes to provide other commonly used company widgets. I have not yet started to play with center section - the main use of AJAX - but, and here is problem:
Company desires automatically updating time widget at bottom of page - this feature was already in use implemented in scriptaculous at our London office; this is why I am starting with scriptaculous rather than some other AJAX implementation. I stole the following code: Head section: <script src="required/scriptaculous/lib/prototype.js" type="text/ javascript"></script> <script type="text/javascript"> new Ajax.PeriodicalUpdater('clock', 'required/clock/gettime.php', {asynchronous:true, frequency:60}); </script> And of course, brought all the scriptacous code over to required/lib. At bottom of page London original was: <div id="clock" align="center"><?php include ("required/clock/ gettime.php"); ?></div> I used that and also tried: <span id="clock"> <?php //include clock footer include ("required/clock/gettime.php"); ?> </span> (since I had the whole in table, thought I might need to go to span instead of div) That's it - works in London, does not work in NY for me and London guy who did original long gone. The only other difference is London site runs on Windows; mine runs on Linux - is that a prob? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Prototype & script.aculo.us" group.
