Subject: Questions regarding PV access within CSS

Hello

Is it possible to read a PV value using its string name?

2nd Related question, as you all know, when you add a script to CSS it is executed (by default) on a trigger from a PV you add. How to have the same idea but without PVs? i.e., executing a script continuously without an external trigger so for example to update a widget's text value.

P.S.: If these two cases are possible it would save a LOT of time doing some stuff with reading 640 PV values :D

Thanks!

Abdalla.
