Hi there!

I have a textfield which i would like to load external messages to every 5 second, for this i have come up with a surtain code, but it doesn’t work…

Anybody that knows how to fix this?

// Ställ in så vi kan anväda svenska bokstäver också  
System.useCodepage = true;  
// Hur länge ska vara meddelande visas?  
visningstid = 1; // Sekunder

LaddaNytt = function() { [indent]loadText = new LoadVars();

loadText.load(“data.txt”);  
loadText.onLoad = function() {  
faltet.text = this.name;  
};

[/indent]}

Nedrakning = function(message){

visningstid–; [indent]if (visningstid==0){

visningstid = 5;  
LaddaNytt();  
}

[/indent]}

intervall = setInterval(nedrakning, 1000);

Kindly regards Martin
