Page auto reload without refresh

Hi I want to know How to make the page reload asynchronous, for example if someone has received a message , the last message will appear without refreshing the page. just like facebook. thank you.

Solution

  • You would have to use something like JQuery & Javascript to poll the server for changes and display them on the page in a div.

    setInterval('someFunc()', 1000)

function someFunc()
{

 $.ajax({
            async: true,
            type: "GET",
            url: "www.domain.com/url",
            data: data,
            success: function (html) {
                $("#myDiv").html(html);                
            }  
        });

}

    This will update the div with ID myDiv every second with the data from www.domain.com/url passing in data is a param (you will have to define 'data')
