IE and Javascript window.setInterval() problem

blue_harvester · 16 Jan 2007 at 09:04

I currently use the following Javascript in the <head> section of my HTML code to update the contents every 10 seconds:

Code:

<script language="javascript"  type="text/javascript">
	// Update the data every 10 seconds
        window.setInterval("getFeedList()", 10000);
</script>

This code works perfectly in Firefox but not in IE7 (I haven't tried it in IE6 yet). Are there any obvious reasons why this is the case?

Ok correction on this. I have now tried this on a different PC running IE7 and it works fine! Therefore I'm assuming there must be some browser setting that needs changed?
