An Iframe I need to refresh every 30 seconds but not the whole page

Question

I have this bit of code  lt iframe marginwidth  quot 0 quot  marginheight  quot 0 quot  width  quot 240 quot  height  quot 80 quot  scrolling  quot no quot  frameborder 0 src  quot irc online php quot  gt   lt  iframe gt   I am adding this to a html widget I have on a sidebar  Is there a way I can make this refresh say every 30 seconds and not the rest of my page

You can put a meta refresh Tag in the irc_online.php

<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="30">

OR you can use Javascript with setInterval to refresh the src of the Source...

<script>
window.setInterval("reloadIFrame();", 30000);

function reloadIFrame() {
 document.frames["frameNameHere"].location.reload();
}
</script>

I have a simpler solution  In your destination page  irc online php  add an auto-refresh tag in the header
