jQuery - Call ajax every 10 seconds

You could try setInterval() instead:

var i = setInterval(function(){
   //Call ajax here
},10000)

setInterval(function()
{ 
    $.ajax({
      type:"post",
      url:"myurl.html",
      datatype:"html",
      success:function(data)
      {
          //do something with response data
      }
    });
}, 10000);//time in milliseconds 

Are you going to want to do a setInterval()?

setInterval(function(){get_fb();}, 10000);

Or:

setInterval(get_fb, 10000);

Or, if you want it to run only after successfully completing the call, you can set it up in your .ajax().success() callback:

function get_fb(){
    var feedback = $.ajax({
        type: "POST",
        url: "feedback.php",
        async: false
    }).success(function(){
        setTimeout(function(){get_fb();}, 10000);
    }).responseText;

    $('div.feedback-box').html(feedback);
}

Or use .ajax().complete() if you want it to run regardless of result:

function get_fb(){
    var feedback = $.ajax({
        type: "POST",
        url: "feedback.php",
        async: false
    }).complete(function(){
        setTimeout(function(){get_fb();}, 10000);
    }).responseText;

    $('div.feedback-box').html(feedback);
}

Here is a demonstration of the two. Note, the success works only once because jsfiddle is returning a 404 error on the ajax call.
