Default onTime loop running in the background

So is it impossible to have a timed procedure call while the user is
editing the page? Basically, i am trying to set up a loop that
periodically checks the filelen of a text file. If the filesize is
different than the value from the previous check, the contents of a
certain text box (text box A) is updated. During this time, the user
should still be able to edit the worksheet (write to a different text
box (text box B), or just sit and look as the contents of text box A
are refreshed.
