Hello, I am making an application in which I have a div where a new news is flashed after every 5 second or so automatically. By automatically, I mean user does not send any request to server by clicking on anything. The approach I think which might work is - for news div, I call a javascript function on onload event function of the div, which after every 5 second sends an ajax request to server and update that div with a new content. However, as I understand that this thing needs to be implemented as a separate thread so that rest of the components on the webpage remains interactable. Is this the right approach to solve this or is there a better way to do it?
