I want to get the time from the server and update it every second. I used the setinterval function but it work only one time.

var gettime = function(){
var newDate= new Date("<?= date('Y/m/d H:i:s'); ?>"); 
var seconds=newDategetSeconds();
$("#sec").html(seconds);
}
setInterval(gettime,1000);

and to show it

<div id="sec"><div>

but this works the time is updated every second if i use the javascript code var newDate= new Date() instead of the php code but gives the client time

var newDate= new Date("<?= date('Y/m/d H:i:s'); ?>")

You'd need to either make an AJAX call to your server for the time, or reload the entire page every second – j08691 Mar 27 '17 at 15:04
Why do you need to fetch the server time every second? You can start with the server's timestamp, but then you can let the browser count the seconds from there. – deceze Mar 27 '17 at 15:08
thanks @j08691, how to make the ajax call every second? – Dababi Mar 27 '17 at 20:51
