repeat executung script

hi, for example i have a ajax request, how i can repeat the request every 1 minute? thank you.

• Use setInterval to automatically call the specified function periodically:

  var interval = setInterval(function() {
     // do ajax request
     ...............
  }, 60 * 1000);
  
  if (some_condition) {
      clearInterval(interval); // stop the timer
  }
  

• Use setTimeout to schedule one run of the function based on condition:

  var timeout;
  (function doAjax() {
     // do ajax request
     ...............
     if (some_condition) {
         timeout = setTimeout(doAjax, 60 * 1000); // schedule the next run
     }
  })();
  
  if (another_condition) {
      clearTimeout(timeout); // cancel the schedule
  }
  

thank you wOxxOm!, you are good for a teacher :D
