Any help at all is appreciated here folks. I'm building a web app in php and I'm using the Yii MVC framework which has a lot of built in tools. Just as the title says, i need to refresh a div every 10 seconds. At the moment I have this ajax function
<script type="text/javascript">
function ajaxFunction(){
var ajaxRequest;
try{
// Opera 8.0+, Firefox, Safari
ajaxRequest = new XMLHttpRequest();
} catch (e){
// Internet Explorer Browsers
try{
ajaxRequest = new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.XMLHTTP");
} catch (e) {
try{
ajaxRequest = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP");
} catch (e){
// Something went wrong
alert("Your browser broke!");
return false;
}
}
}
// Create a function that will receive data sent from the server
ajaxRequest.onreadystatechange = function(){
var list = document.getElementById('logged_in_users_list');
if(ajaxRequest.readyState == 4){
list.innerHTML = ajaxRequest.responseText;
setTimeout('ajaxFunction()',10000);
}
}
ajaxRequest.open("GET", "protected/controllers/room/openRoom", true);
ajaxRequest.send(null);
}
</script>
<script type="text/javascript">
setInterval(function() {ajaxFunction();}, 5000);
</script>
For those of you who are unfamiliar with Yii it stores most of your php files in a folder called protected. Well it is just that, the ajaxRequest.open line of code above is requesting that url which is stored inside the protected folder, so I keep getting an access forbidden 403 error. Any ideas how I could implement something different with jquery or get round this access problem?
