Remarks

Use the Interval property to set how often the Timer control initiates a postback to the server. You can change the value of the Interval property in server code after a postback, such as in an event handler for the Tick event. The accuracy of when the Timer control posts back to the Web server depends on the accuracy of the ECMAScript (JavaScript) window.setTimeout function that runs in the browser.

Note

Setting the Interval property to a small value can generate significant traffic to and from the Web server. Use the Timer control to refresh the content only as often as necessary.

When you change the value of the Interval property, the ECMAScript timing code running in the browser will be reset when the updates are rendered.
