I'm looking for a way of refreshing a PHP include using jQuery.
I had a go but needed to re-include the database config file which isn't what I wanted.
Is there a nice easy way of including and auto refreshing a file every 10 seconds?
Any help would be great,
Thanks!

This will repeat every 10 seconds using the load
function that will display the contents in an element.
function refreshConfig()
{
setTimeout(function()
{
$('#element').load('database_config.php', function()
{
refreshConfig();
});
}, 10000);
}
If you need something different, please explain more better.

There are no "PHP includes"
However you can poll for new entries into your element every 10 seconds by using this code
$(function(){
setInterval(function(){
$("#your_element").load("new_entries.php");
}, 10 * 1000);
});
where "new_entries.php" gives you fresh news from your database
