Dear All,
I have a live streaming channel display in the site, and i wanted to announce live braodcast to the users by refreshing the page when live broadcast starts. So i made a module that has only a text saying live braodcast is here, and in that module (which is hidden unless at time of livestreaming) i added a javascript that refreshes the page using this code: setTimeout("location.reload(true);",10000000); just to be able lto refresh the page once, till the live braodcast finishes then i make the module hidden again so i guarantee with the very big time value that it is only refreshed once. However, nothing happens at all, if i am opening the site already i have to press F5 to get that text and see the module visible.. My quesiotn is, how do i push the page through the open sites in browsers already so that users know there is boradcast now without them pressing F5 every few seconds please? Thanks alot

Given the nature of a web application and the disconnected nature, you will need to do something to poll the server, client side, via javascript to check for updates from the server.

You could use an Ajax timer or similar functionality to do this.

Hello Mitchel,
Thanks for your answer, but since i am not much of an expert, can you give me an example please? or tell me what to google? do i just search for javascript code to poll the server? i just want this refreshing code to be activated when the module is set to visible...
Would appreciate more guidance atleast about what to search for ...
Thanks alot.
Regards

 We are also looking at doing live broadcast training for our users.  If you don't mind how are you accomplishing the live broadcast channel?
