Answer 1

After that I use this code and enjoy….

$(document).ready(
        function() {
            setInterval(function() {
                $('.main-time-portion').load('/dashboard/give_time');
            }, 1000);
        });

where dashboard is my controller and give_time is action

def give_time
    @time = Time.now.utc.to_s.split(" ").second
    render :partial => 'shared/time_portion'
end
