A system and method for simultaneously updating a plurality of user interface elements displayed in a web page at a periodic time interval. In response to a web browser accessing the web page, the web server generates information for displaying the plurality of user interface elements in the web page and generates scripting code associated with the user interface elements. When the web browser displays the web page, the scripting code starts a timer that periodically elapses at fixed time intervals. Each time the timer elapses, the scripting code asynchronously communicates with the web server to receive update information for updating the user interface elements. Exemplary re-useable software components for implementing the simultaneous update of a plurality of user interface elements in a web page are described.
