AJAX Question updates
I’ll be answering your AJAX questions tomorrow, so if you have any thing else, head over to my last post and ask away.
Also I’ll be at Linux World tomorrow so if you’re taking part in the healthcare day make sure to stop by and take a look at Clearhealth.
Hi,
is there an AJAX technique that allows to create a table or grid connected to database that is populated automaticly with the new records when they are added to the db ?
thx
Hani:
You the answer is yes
So you can create AJAX powered tables or grids, getting a real smooth UI for scrolling etc isn’t easy but the DOM has all the power you need to get things built.
Fot automatically populating updates you have 2 options, you can poll the server on a regular basis, updating the table when there is new info or you can look into a technique called comet, which leaves a connection open to your server.
Polling is easier to implement, scaling to large sites which option is best is a hard call.
