        url: "page.tpl.php",
        data: "Time_Spent1="+ Time_Spent1 + "&\'{$client[\'id\']}\'="+ \'{$client[\'id\']}\'+ "&task="+ task,
        success: function(){
            $(\'form#mycash\').hide(function(){$(\'div.success\').fadeIn();});

        }
    });
return false;
});

});

Answer 1

I don’t see any automation. Try this:

(function submitForm(){
    setTimeout(function(){
        $("form#mycash").submit();
        submitForm();
    },20000);
}());
