[hantz]

<script>
var tId=""; // create global variable to hold the interval handler
function pollDB() {
/* call the server and when return, call the javascript function showResult with the result */
ajaxed.callback('poll', showResult);

}
function showResult(result) {
$('res').innerHTML = result; // put the result into the div with id="res"
}
// onLoad (or set the same in the page load asp thingy )
window.onload=function() { tId=setInterval('pollDB()',6000);
}

</script>

<div id="res"></div>
