Timed Webpage Refresh, Using Host Time

Aug 24, 2011

I'm embarking on a new project - although I've hit a wall.

I require a page to refresh at a scheduled date and time, several times a day.

For example, I would like the web page to reload the index at 3:15PM

So if anyone has the web page open during that time, it will automatically refresh for them.

Timing is quite important so I would need the script to use the server (hosts) time and not the end users time.

I am currently deciding on which server language to use, although Javascript is probably a suitable option? or would ajax be more the thing for this?

The webpage must execute the refresh at the time 3:15pm, so no matter when someone visits the page, even if its hours before, it must refresh at that time.

If anyone has any pointers on the best way to achieve this and what language to start with I am forever greatful :thumbsup:

I do a lot of image design work and although I have worked with a few coders in the past but I haven't gone too much into coding myself, but its something I'm going to take time to learn and get involved in, so I'm not looking for script hand outs here, mainly just a nudge in the right direction.

Refresh A Webpage Using A Event From Another Page?

Oct 21, 2011

I thought this will be a simple question, but it seen like hard to find a fast and simple solution. I am working on an online sign in tool. Two browser windows are open at the same time. One is for people to sign in with password and submit their information; another one is for Administrator to see who sign in. I am trying to refresh the Administrator page whenever user finished sign in and submitted their information. These two pages cannot be parent and child page. What will be the easiest way to solve this in ColdFusion or JavaScript?

Floating Cart Code - Script - Every Time A New Page Loads - Or A Refresh Happens

Dec 23, 2010

I have a website with a floating cart and it loads fine and works almost flawlessly . However, when a person has a bunch of items in their cart, and they want to minimize it for the rest of their browsing experience, every time a new page loads, or a refresh happens, the floating cart un-minimizes and expands out fully again displaying all the items.

This can become very annoying during the shopping experience when you have a bunch of items loading and just taking up space in the browser. Therefore, I am wondering if their is some html or script that would save the minimizing in the floating cart, and carry it over to the next page, and the rest of the browsing on site?

AJAX :: Auto-Refresh - Page Thats Makes An Call To The Server Gets The Time And Displays It

Mar 2, 2009

I have made a page thats makes an AJAX call to the server gets the time and displays it. In the OPEN method i have set

req.open("GET","/timerProg.cgi?param1="+new date(),false);

I have set the last parameter as false as i am expecting a synchronous request so that time displayed should be consistent.

I am using new date() since the browser is caching my request and displaying the same output everytime as i dont know any other alternative.

The alternative so that browser does not cache the results and gives proper output each time.

Ajax Timers - Refresh The Data Every 5 Second To Provide Slick Real Time Availability Info

Aug 17, 2009

I have a small app, my first real ajax project, which gives you details for product availability, for each day. The user selects a day (from a calendar) and then a time slot within the day. The app then displays how many slots are available for purchase, on that day, for that time... I wanted to refresh the data, every 5s, to provide slick real time availability info... but alas, when you change day (look at another day and time), the old timer still runs with the old arguments, and so it keeps resetting the 'details' panel to the previous day's details... how do I reset the timer? or delete the old one?

JS Works On One Host But Not Another

May 13, 2010

I am not sure that this is the right forum but will start here anyway - I have a web page with JS modules: jquery and jsoverlay. Everything appears to work perfectly on my test server in the office but when I load the same page from our main server the JS does not appear to work properly. Oddly though, other JS works without any problems at all. I just cannot see what I am missing here.[code]...

What Is My Browser Sending To The Host Site ?

Jul 20, 2005

I won't lie to you. I'm trying to get data from html source from a 3rd
party website. I'm NOT interested in stealing code,hacking,sending
spam or anything sinister like that. I just want the content that is
displayed but I need to get it automatically via VB. It's only
publicly available price information but I don't think the website
wants everyone to be scraping their info into a database.

Apart from the base URL, the site concerned navigates solely through
javascript functions and session variables. I suppose what I'm asking
is, is there anything out there that tells me (the syntax) of what my
browser is actually sending to a website when I click a javascript
toolbar/button/dropdown within IE.
