Hi all,

I have a problem.

JavaScript functions can be used for this effect in most instances.
Though it depends on which function you want to execute, of course.

Please provide more detail. Are you asking about server-side or
client-side?

If you are asking about server-side there are options like delayed_job:

Or, in case the action to perform is very simple you can use use
something like curl to send requests periodically to a url using cron:

$ crontab -e
*/10 * * * * curl http://example.com/action

If you’re talking about client-side (JavaScript) then there are timing
events that you can use for delayed or repeating events:

If you’re using the Prototype JavaScript library it provides the
Ajax.PeriodicalUpdater if you want to repeatedly send a request on an
interval.
