How am i going to make a auto refresh page with scheduling?

Hello all, How am i going to make a auto refresh page with scheduling? Currently I need to click on a button to the data and i would use javascript timer to update the data but what if the user has off their javascript? So is there any scheduling in mojoPortal for it?

Re: How am i going to make a auto refresh page with scheduling?

You could make a separate skin for the page you want to auto refresh and then add a meta element in layout.master of the skin to automatically refresh the page. ie this example refreshes the page every 30 seconds:

<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="30" />

the reason to make a separate skin is because you don't really want to do this on all pages so you need a separate skin to add that meta tag only to one page.

You can enable per page skins in site settings then a skin dropdown will show up in page settings. Copy your main skin with a new name and add this meta in layout.master file of the skin.

Hope that helps,

Joe

ajax/UpdatePanel can only work with javascript enabled. ajax by definition uses javascript.
