Thanks for your message!
I have changed the html file to your suggestions, but the container
still doesn't get updated in IE.
I have also tried a static text file and changed it while IE was
running but it still showed the old value.
But I have found something else interesting, if you clear IE's cache,
the value gets updated once.
It would be very nice if anybody else could try this and say if it
works or not. I have no further ideas...
Just to make sure I got you right Adam, this is the changed html file:
----------------------------
<html>
<head>
<title>test</title>
<META HTTP-EQUIV="Expires" CONTENT="Tue, 01 Jan 1980 1:00:00 GMT">
<META HTTP-EQUIV="Pragma" CONTENT="no-cache">
<script type="text/javascript" src="prototype.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
Event.observe(window, 'load', doUpdate, false);
function doUpdate() {
new Ajax.PeriodicalUpdater('time', 'test.txt',
/*new Ajax.PeriodicalUpdater('time', 'time.php',*/
{
method: 'get',
frequency: 1
});
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<div id="time"></div>
</body>
</html>
----------------------------
