Hi guys,

I use a tiny jscript in my main page to show IMAGES transmited from Venice (Italy). That script takes the jpgs from a server every 30 seconds and display it to the webpage. Kinda of a live webcam but not so "live".

See here

But when the server in Venice is down or slow, the whole page is slow or even it doesn't load well.

I want to replace that with Ajax since somebody suggested as a solution. Any ideas how i could do that and if it would help ?

Thanks

Hi Costa

The Ajax will let the rest of the page load without waiting for the 'webcam' images but you will still get the loading spinner if the other site is down.  Which could be nearly as bad from a visitor perspective.

I'd see if you could find a way to pull the images to the server on a regular basis and then serve them from there. If the source server is down then you end up showing the most recent image. But the visitor experience would be a lot better.

Hth

Antony yes, this is what i try to do.

Because right now if the webcam is down, 90% the page has trouble to load or is very slow.
