[Seaside] Dynamically updating a WEB page

Hi, Does Seaside have any provisions for dynamically updating a WEB
page without the user initiating a callback action? For example, if
the WEB page is just displaying a clock that was suppose to
automatically update every minute how can it be updated without a
user action? What I've done so far is create a callback action
attached to the image of the clock. If the user clicks on the image
the callback just invokes #answer which returns to the
ClockController, which is a WATask. ClockController then just creates
a new ClockDisplay, which is a WAComponent, and then invokes #call
on it. What I would like to do is have the ClockController
periodically invoke a method "update" in ClockDisplay which would
force a new WEB page being displayed for the user. Is this where I
need to write javascript?
