    this is javascript not php and try

    function firstCall() {
    $("#divid").load("emails.php");
    setTimeout("secondCall", 5000);
    }
    function secondCall() {
    $("#divid").load("add.php");
    setTimeout("firstCall", 5000);
    }
    <body onload="firstCall()">

    Hi,

    I tried the code as you said. The first php file loads properly but the second php file is not loaded. I don't know what's the problem with the code.

var current = 1;
function call() {
if(current % 2 == 0)
$("#divid").load("add.php");
else
$("#divid").load("emails.php");

current++;
setTimeout("call()", 5000);
}

<body onload="call()">
