Question

I’m looking for a way of refreshing a PHP include using jQuery.

I had a go but needed to re-include the database config file which isn’t what I wanted.

Is there a nice easy way of including and auto refreshing a file every 10 seconds?

Any help would be great,

Thanks!

Answer 1

There are no “PHP includes”

However you can poll for new entries into your element every 10 seconds by using this code

$(function(){
    setInterval(function(){
           $("#your_element").load("new_entries.php");
    }, 10 * 1000);
});

where “new_entries.php” gives you fresh news from your database
