Non-refresh

[DediSource]

I was wondering how to go about providing updated contents without refreshing the page.
Meaning only the digits or text will change without the browser reloading.
Anyone has any advise or is this a sensitive issue?

preferbly by php, perl, js, etc, not asp/aspx

You can use frames, iframes, JavaScript, etc.

One solution would be to use iframe.
Load the file within the frame, and set that file to refresh (in header) and so the frame content would continue to update.

you can use iframe if you only want to refresh a small portion of data, else normal script like php, perl are server site scripting, you wont be able to change content without refreshing the page.

Unless you want to try applet, aspx might be another solution if you want.

thanks everyone.

I aware of iframe but was thinking if there's any better option.
I understand that Flash can do it oso, any idea?

depends on the type of data you want to update on the screen.
If the data is from server, then you need you load to page again using the above suggestion, iframe, etc.

If you just want to update certain fields or labels or using layers, you can use javascript.
