Re: jquery update label specific intervals

Here is the server code:

[WebMethod]
public static String GetData(String X)
{
    return X + "  " + DateTime.Now.ToLongTimeString();
}

Here is the client code:

function update()
{
    $.ajax({
        type: "POST",
        url: "Default.aspx/GetData",
        data: "{X: 'Hello:'}",
        contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",
        dataType: "json",
        success: function (msg)
        {
            $('#container').text(msg.d);
        },
        error: function (msg)
        {
            $('#container').text(msg.statusText);
        }
    });          
}

setInterval("update()", 10000);
