Question

I am trying to replace some div text automatically using the .html command in Jquery but it’s not working for me. This is the code I have so far:

    <div id="test">123</div>

    <script type="text/javascript">

    jQuery(document).ready(function(){

    var refreshId = setInterval(function()

    {

    $('#test').html("test");

    }, 1000);


});

</script>

Could someone tell me what I’m doing wrong please? I have ran tests to make sure Jquery is working and it is, and if I run alert(‘test’); then that works fine.

Thanks for any help

Edit: I have ran the script in another file on localhost and it works fine – could it be something within the code I’m using already that’s stopping it from working? This is baffling me!

Answer 1

When I have problems like this it’s usually due to some javascript/jquery prior to this part which is incorrect.

If you can, try proofing or commenting out some other parts of your code to see if you can make it work.
