The setInterval() function can take a string (which is "evals") or a
"reference" to a function (which is the recommended way).
To invoke a function via setInterval/setTimeout with arguments what is
usually done to use an anonymous function/closure.
So something like:
slideshow_interval = setInterval(
function() {
PageMethod("getNextSlideShowItem", ["elmID", callerID,
"CampaignID", hdnCampaignID], onSuccess, onFail);
),
1000);
On a side note: I wouldn't recommend loading via ajax at such a small
interval (1 second). In the "real world" the response will frequently
end up taking more than 1 second to return from the server.
