Re: Window.setInterval not working from asp.net

Yeah, sorry. I gave you bad javascript for RegisterStartupScript:

<script runat="server">
private void Page_Load(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
	this.RegisterStartupScript("MyInit", "<script>DoInit();</script>");
}
</script>
<script>
<!--
function DoInit()
{
       window.setInterval('foo()', 500);
}
function foo()
{
         document.getElementById('myLabel').innerHTML += 'x';
}
-->
</script>

I  tried your suggestion and put alerts into both functions and while
the first function which has the window.setInterval showed the alert
the second function being executed from the setInterval was never
executed. No errors appear.

I also put the code into my code behind but received the same results.

I don't know what  the <body> issue is, but in Page_Load try:

Page.RegisterStartupScript("mystartscript", "startit();")

If The script below is exeuted from the onload="startit()" in the
body tag everything works fine but when I remove the onload and try
to execute by using the attributes.add from within the Page Load the
window.setInterval will not execute - there is no message but the
timer never takes off. I put an alert in the startit() and it did
appear so the attributes.add is working ok.

Would appreciate any help

thanks
