Thanks Anthony!! I resolved my problem with an ajaxSuccess event handler.
I am calling a web2py_component with the target div and using setTimeout to
achieve what I want. The code snippet in demo/f1.html is below for anyone
who may be interested:
<script>
my_url = "{{=URL('demo', 'f1.load')}}";
update_interval = 15000;
$(document).ready(function(){
setInterval(function(){
web2py_component(my_url, 'content');
}, update_interval);
$(document).ajaxSuccess(function(e, xhr, settings) {
my_url = settings.url;
});
});
</script>
{{=LOAD('demo', 'f1.load', ajax=True, ajax_trap=True, content='Loading...',
user_signature=True, target='content')}}
