copied!<p>I'm not familiar with the PeriodicalUpdater plugin, but if I was you, I would look into simply using JavaScript's "setTimeout" function. setTimeout allows you to run a function at a specified interval.</p> <p>For an example that's relevant to your situation, see here:</p> <pre><code><script type="text/javascript"> setTimeout("updateTable();", 5000); function updateTable() { $.post("/your_script.php", {}, function(result) { $("#my_table").html(result); }); setTimeout("updateTable", 5000); } </script> </code></pre> <p>Note: There are 1000 milliseconds in one second, so that function is designed to fire off every 5 seconds.</p> <p>In addition...</p> <p>I'm assuming that each entry in your queue table has a unique ID associated with it. Within your main HTML page, I would print out the table like this:</p> <pre><code><table> <tr id='q1'><td>Queue Item 1</td></tr> <tr id='q2'><td>Queue Item 2</td></tr> <tr id='q3'><td>Queue Item 3</td></tr> <tr id='q4'><td>Queue Item 4</td></tr> <tr id='q5'><td>Queue Item 5</td></tr> </table> </code></pre> <p>In other words, assign each row in your queue table the same ID that the entry in your table has. Then, when your AJAX call returns a result, you can check to see if any of the queue items have been finished. If they have, you can do something like:</p> <pre><code>$("#q1").fadeOut("fast"); </code></pre>
