Hi
I have a need to constantly update a portion of the screen - containing the results of a calculation; and the calculation includes elased time - so constantly changes (increases) the result). Ideally refreshing every 1 or 2 secs.
I tried a permanent WHILE loop, but I get an error that the script is slowing the browser.
Can anyone:
- tell we which way to go,
- or give pros/cons of techniques,
- or point me to anything similar
I decided not to constantly 'refresh' the page, because the progress bar (whatever it's called?) at the bottom of the browser window is disruptive to the eye. Even refreshing a frame within a window, causes this bar to flash - or does anyone know a way to disable this?
Thanks
