I have tried methods but they did not let me have all the divs and php files to refresh in one function — Strykes

Use the javascript function settimeout
In the setimeout function, perform the ajax request
Fill the div element with the results from the ajax request
Again, use the settimeout function in the ajax response and perform the step 2 and 3.

I'm planning out the design for a real-time game, and I was wondering, how often should the setimeout be? I want it to be real-time, but would having a delay of 0 lag up the server?

send a ajax request per second.

window.setTimeout(function () {
    $.ajax({
        // param
    });
}, 1000);
