Time in animation in php

Hello I need to show time while its second is increasing every second without refreshing the page. Would you please help me?

You have to send ajax request every second to get the time from the server. But I dont think the ajax request will be completed within a second in internet.

Not the case. Only 1 query is needed to get the time, Javascript can then count the seconds after that.

PHP is server side, you need something client side like Ajax to keep it updating

Agreed AJAX isnt even needed. If you have a javascript timer and then when teh page is called via php, PHP can output the current time into the javascript. IE: time = ""; some javascript increasing time and echoing it. No ajax needed.

Javascript wouldn't be too hard. Google "Creating a JavaScript Clock"
