updateInterval Property

Sets or retrieves the update interval for the screen.

Syntax

screen.updateInterval ( v ) [ = iInterval ]

Possible Values

iInterval Integer that specifies or receives the update interval, in milliseconds.

The property is read/write. The property has no default value.

Expressions can be used in place of the preceding value(s), as of Microsoft® Internet Explorer 5. For more information, see About Dynamic Properties .

Remarks

The updateInterval property can be set to an integer value specifying the number of milliseconds between updates to the screen. A value of 0 (the default) disables the update interval.

The interval causes screen updates to be buffered and then drawn in the specified millisecond intervals. This limits excessive invalidations that reduce the overall painting performance, which can happen when too many flipbook-style animations occur at once.

Use this property judiciously; a value too small or too large adversely affects the page rendering response.
