Question

Ok basically here is my problem and I can’t find anything about it on this site or any site. I am using Ajax for refreshing a include php file and its keeps refreshing on itself.Basically the first refresh is fine 10 seconds then this happens the second refresh is 5 seconds while refreshing on itself, then the next about 2 seconds doing same thing, and goes down to the 1 second. I don’t know what is wrong why its doing this.

This is the code for refreshing. I am not doing the rest of the code. I know this is where the problem is because it causes the refreshing itself.

<script>
$("#active").load("active.phps");
setInterval(function(){
  $("#active").load("active.php");
}, 10000);
</script>

Anyone can help I would be grateful. This is to help tell what friends you have online, and with this it slows down performance on my site and on my computer.

Answer 1

add the added lines to the beginning and end of your script:

    $(function() {
       $("#active").load("active.phps");
        setInterval(function(){
           $("#active").load("active.php");
         }, 10000);
    });

this runs the scriptafter everything is finished loading. So it waits basically.
