Find the element, then use the `innerText` property to update the contents. – zerkms May 14 '17 at 22:06

you can use something like setInterval, https://www.w3schools.com/jsref/met_win_setinterval.asp
setInterval(function() {
//do what you need to with the variable here
}, 10 * 1000); //since millseconds

Use setInterval.
setInterval(function() {
}, 10*1000)
as said.
BUT... If the new value of the variable, has to do with time, you 'd better use a timestamp method too, instead of doing your calculations based on setInterval.
