2 QUICK Questions

[tome109109]

I have a Javascript running in the sidebar of my forum displaying new threads.
How would i make the refresh rate of what posts have been made quicker?
Heres my code:

<div class="links_top"><b>Latest Posts</b></div>
<div class="links_bg">
<div class="user_text">

<script type="text/javascript">

iens6=document.all||document.getElementById
ns4=document.layers

//specify speed of scroll (greater=faster)
var speed=7

if (iens6){
document.write('<a onmouseover="moveup()" onmouseout="clearTimeout(moveupvar)"><img src="images/post_top.gif" border="0" alt="Scroll Up" /></a>')
document.write('<div id="container" style="position:relative;width:100%;height:260px;border:0 px solid black;overflow:hidden;">')
document.write('<div id="content" style="position:absolute;width:100%; height: 754px; left:0;top:0;bottom:0;">')
}
</script>
<ilayer id="nscontainer" width="175" height="190" clip="0,0,150,160">
<layer id="nscontent" width="175" visibility="hidden">



<span class="smallfont">


<div style='background-color: ; padding:2px; border-bottom: 1px dotted #BB6767;'>
<script type="text/javascript" src="external.php?type=js"></script>
<script language="" type="text/javascript">
<!--
for (x = 0; x < 15; x++)
{
document.writeln(" &bull; <a href=\"showthread.php?t="+threads[x].threadid+"\"><b>"+threads
[x].title+"</b></a><br />By: "+threads[x].poster+" <br><br />");
}
//-->
</script>
</font></div>
</span>


</layer>
</ilayer>

<script language="JavaScript1.2">
if (iens6)
document.write('</div></div>')
</script>

<a onmouseover="movedown()" onmouseout="clearTimeout(movedownvar)"><img src="images/post_top1.gif" border="0" alt="Scroll Down" /></a>

<script language="JavaScript1.2">
if (iens6){
var crossobj=document.getElementById? document.getElementById("content") : document.all.content
var contentheight=crossobj.offsetHeight
}
else if (ns4){
var crossobj=document.nscontainer.document.nscontent
var contentheight=crossobj.clip.height
}

function movedown(){
if (iens6&&parseInt(crossobj.style.top)>=(contentheight*(-1)+100))
crossobj.style.top=parseInt(crossobj.style.top)-speed+"px"
else if (ns4&&crossobj.top>=(contentheight*(-1)+100))
crossobj.top-=speed
movedownvar=setTimeout("movedown()",20)
}

function moveup(){
if (iens6&&parseInt(crossobj.style.top)<=0)
crossobj.style.top=parseInt(crossobj.style.top)+sp eed+"px"
else if (ns4&&crossobj.top<=0)
crossobj.top+=speed
moveupvar=setTimeout("moveup()",20)

}

function getcontent_height(){
if (iens6)
contentheight=crossobj.offsetHeight
else if (ns4)
document.nscontainer.document.nscontent.visibility ="show"
}
window.onload=getcontent_height
</script>

And one more question , ive got a script which seperates staff from normal users in the whos online part of the forum all i get this error:
