Thanks for the reply!
Sorry about the example, the references were indeed wrong in my example but
the code was using the right references. My problem was when I would refer
to myDiv.updateFreq it would be undefined. But when I used your simple
script I was able to get the div widget and access the updateFreq.
But it turned out that even if i changed the updateFreq my refresh interval
wouldn't work. So I took your advice and did a watch using firebug and
discovered there was a timer object and an interval property. Turns out
that's the one you have to modify.
So I ended up with the following code:
var myDiv = dojo.widget.byId("myDivId");
myDiv.timer.interval = newInterval;
Also you need to restart the timer by stopping it and starting again for the
new interval to take effect. Would there be some kind of function I can use
to change the interval or this is the only way?
Thanks again for the reply!
