Thank you - yeah, relative URL is ok - whole thing was a conflict
between jQuery and Prototype - they both use '$' to shorten code
footprint; working now Thanks Again

 Your URL is relative, you sure this is correct?

 Try testing it out with a regular Ajax.Request and listening to the
 onSuccess/Failure/Exception events and see what is going on.

  javascript/script
  script type=text/javascript
      new Ajax.PeriodicalUpdater('clock', 'required/clock/gettime.php',
  {asynchronous:true, frequency:60});
  /script

  And of course, brought all the scriptacous code over to required/lib.

  At bottom of page London original was:

  div id=clock align=center?php include (required/clock/
  gettime.php); ?/div

  I used that and also tried:

  span id=clock
                          ?php
              //include clock footer
              include (required/clock/gettime.php);
              ?
              /span

  (since I had the whole in table, thought I might need to go to span
  instead of div)

  That's it - works in London, does not work in NY for me and London guy
  who did original long gone.

  The only other difference is London site runs on Windows; mine runs on
  Linux - is that a prob?- Hide quoted text -

2009-02-25 Thread Justin

use firebug, and check the response from the server.
(make sure error reporting is on)
if the return from the ajax query is an error... then its server side.

I suspect its a php related time error, you should check those
scripts.

NOW if its a local javascript error, (not a bad return from the
server) it may be that you have not initalized the control correctly
does this help?
