In the last line of your function add this line
setTimeout ( "importquotes()", 2000 );

This will call your method each 2000 milisecond intervals
Let me know if you need more help

Task scheduler in windows will not run javascript

write a one liner .bat file to run java script and call the batch file from scheduler, you can do this.

Can we make this even more complicated please ? :lol:
That will not work
You need an engine for Javascript to run. This engine is either in the browser or in a Java Virtual Machine which now supports scripting.
So the only solution is to add this single line in the end of the JS function , embed it in html and just open it in the browser.
