ajax shoutbox

[Colin-Roberts]

anyone know any good tutorials for one or anything/
anyway i decideded to refrace what i need is there anyway to refresh a page every so often using ajax.
like it updates every 10 seconds instead of doing the whole page refresh every time
i know you can do it when a new shout is added so i assume you can do it every so often

but wat if u type something and it disappears when it refreshes, thats the only problem i cud thing of if it refreshes every ten seconds

Just have the chat in one iframe and have the form in the other, make the chat i frame refresh every 10 seconds

Use a META to fresh it.

<meta http-equiv="Refresh" content="10; URL=LINK.php"/>

Well with a basic js knowlage, i think this tutoral is really all you need to know for a basic script, its the only tutoral ive ever really read on the subject fully, and its served me fine, dispite being a tiny one.
