Post subject: | Live Updates System |
Hello, I am new to FreeHostia and so far I'm enjoying it. I have purchased the Advanced Plan. My script request is fairly unique; On www.leoboivinshowcase.ca I run a hockey tournament website, and this year I would like to provide a Live Updates page/system that will display real time scores that I will input via my laptop rink-side. Is there a script or system (not paid) that I can simply enter the scores etc., and it automatically refreshes for the end user? I would like it to also store the stats/games in a database if possible, for later viewing. Thank you |

You can use Microsoft frontpage, but they will have to refresh the page and instantly it will be updated. |

You would need a script that is a mixture of php and AJAX. Unfortunately i don't know of any pre-made scripts for doing this sort of thing. Update: I did a google search for ajax scoreboard and a few hits came up, it might be worth you investigating them, |

hmm, just thinking, so i'm not sure but... what about maybe putting it in an iframe and making the iframe refresh, say every 5 minutes? another thought is to do something with an rss feed. i'm not sure if either are possible without doing a bit more research |

You can make a whole webpage within the iframe so it can be plenty detailed and any size you want. |

you could create the page to display the info you want an insert javascript to refresh the page every 30 seconds and the score will be updated |
