To stop iframe loading you can use the following code based on this answer:
function setIframeSrc() {
var s = "http://lx5.in/CGIT-Results-p2-2013.php";
var iframe1 = document.getElementById('iframe1');
iframe1.src = s;
setTimeout(function(){
if (window.stop) {
window.stop();
} else {
document.execCommand('Stop'); // MSIE
}
}, 5000);
}
setTimeout(setIframeSrc, 5000);

I would suggest rethinking the idea. IMO it should be the server that displays timeout information and not the client using some JavaScript timeouts. Explanation below.
Your code just says: refresh the iframe every 5 seconds.
You cannot stop iframe request execution. You can change iframe's src location or remove it from the DOM tree. But the request that is started is unstoppable once it reaches the server.
So:
<iframe id="iframe1" src="{url to query}" ...>
and in the script:
function displayTimeout() {
(...)
var p = iframe1.parentNode;
p.removeChild(iframe1);
var div = document.createElement("div");
var text = document.createTextNode("Timeout loading iframe");
div.appendChild(text);
p.appendChild(div);
}
setTimeout(displayTimeout,5000);
But this solution has serious drawbacks - in order not to display timeout when iframe manages to load in time you should cancel the timeout. But how to do that?
If you want to do it from iframe - see iframe accessing parent DOM?
If from parent element - see jQuery/JavaScript: accessing contents of an iframe
The further you go, the more problems and the more complicated the solution becomes. So I would suggest abandoning it.
