Auto Update of DIV is not working
<p>I use this script to reload a DIV whose ID is news,</p>

<pre><code>&lt;script type="text/javascript"&gt;
    var auto_refresh = setInterval(function() {
        &lt;? if ($lim &gt;= 5) 
            $lim = 0;
        else 
            $lim = $lim + 2;

        if ($cnt == 1){
            $lim = 0; 
            $cnt += 1;
        } ?&gt;

        $('#news').load('update.php?lim=&lt;? echo $lim ?&gt;');
    }, 10000); // refresh every 10000 milliseconds
&lt;/script&gt;
</code></pre>

<p>The update.php containts this code to receive the value for lim,</p>

<pre><code>$lim=$_GET['lim'];
</code></pre>

<p>But after every 10 seconds the 'lim' value is sent as 0. I need to update the 'lim' value based on the condition in the script.</p>

<p>I checked in update.php for $lim value using echo command. Always it is 0. What is the bug in my code?</p>
