What exactly are you trying to achieve? If you want to regularly run a server-side function which updates values in a database, moves files on the server or similar stuff, you want to look into Cron jobs.

If, on the other hand, you want to display new content in a regular time interval to a user who has loaded your website into his or her browser, you are looking for an AJAX-based solution.

Example cron-job to invoke /run_me.php every 5 minutes:

*/5 * * * * /usr/bin/wget -q -O /dev/null http://localhost/run_me.php
