Re: Refresh the page when someone posts on a topic you are looking at

I'd like that.
Is it possible for the server to send a message instead of having the client check for one all the time?

(btw challenge has two l's)

This might be frustrating... Because if you're in the middle of reading a post, and it just refreshes, you won't be able to continue reading until after it loads...

Re: Refresh the page when someone posts on a topic you are looking at

maybe there could be a button which says "Refresh the page when someone posts" which will only auto-refresh the page when someone posts, and after you click the button.

Or, instead of auto-refreshing, maybe when someone posts, the server sends a message to the page to add the new post WITHOUT refreshing! (it's possible. It's called "AJAX")

Hmm, Ajax might be a good solution. :3
