WB22 - How Would You Do This?

Hi All

I have a pretty successful web app with one page that the client literally lives on - permanently open until they knock off for the day.

Now here is the problem - controls on the page have to be refreshed depending on changes made in the database made by users on mobile apps. How would you monitor that and force the browser to refresh specific controls on a page?

Cheers
André

Did you try using AJAX and one TIMER in browser code?

I use this method to get the server time but probably you can do other stuff.
In the sample the call_ajax and proc_browser_ajax are local browser procedures and the proc_srv_ajax is one local server procedure

In the onload of the page: Timer(call_ajax,100)

PROCEDURE call_ajax()
AJAXExecuteAsynchronous(proc_srv_ajax,proc_browser_ajax)

PROCEDURE proc_srv_ajax()
RESULT TimeSys()

PROCEDURE proc_browser_ajax(res_srv,proc_srv)
control_time1=res_srv
control_time2=proc_srv

Hi André

+1 timer+ajaxexecuteasyncrhonous

I will add the use of hversion to check if a file has changed and there is a need to refresh anything

Thanks for that. Not using H files though.

Our projects are shared by very many languages so H files do not cut it.
