If it is windows application then no problem.. just drag and use the Timer control.. in the timer event you can change the current time.. give the 5Sec interval for that Timer.. See the following code private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e) { Timer MyTimer = new Timer(); MyTimer.Interval = 1000; MyTimer.Enabled = true; MyTimer.start() } public void MyTimer_Tick(Object Sender, EventArgs e) { label1.Text = DateTime.Now.ToString(); }

You can refresh the page using javascript "Settimeout". If you dont want to refresh the page. use the call the IFRAME to get the current time using the Settimeout.. I thing you catch my point... function DisplayTime(){ document.getElementById('DisplayTimeLable').value = "Current Datetime" setTimeout("DisplayTime()",5000) } DisplayTime()
