Let me first explain what I am trying to do then give my example code. I want to have a widget that runs the command "ls -A" in a directory. If the directory is empty, i want it to print something to screen in the widget and if there are files there I want it to print something else.
I got it working but it only runs the command the first time it is launched and I want it to either do it everytime dashboard is triggered or by pressing a button. here is the code:
I messed with it a lot. It seems to work fine the first time but when I click the button, the entire widget disapears.
What am I doing wrong? I know how I would do it in PHP or python but javascript always gets me.
