[jQuery] JHeartbeat - New Plugin
Hi, I decided to try my hand at my first real plugin for JQuery. (Slightly Thickerbox is more of a script that works with JQuery than an actual plugin.) This is in beta form now and is likely to be of limited use, but here it is: JHeartbeat http:/www.jasons-toolbox.com/JHeartbeat/ It will automatically reload a URL that you provide it every X number of seconds (X being defined by you). You can even have it run a particular function once the load has been completed. I use it to keep sessions alive even during long periods of inactivity. But since the plugin puts the contents of the page into a div with the ID of HeartBeatDIV and since you can define a callback function, you can have it automatically update a section of your page. This is beta right now so please download it and let me know what you think about it. (The lessons that I learn with JHeartbeat may be applied to a plugin version of Slightly Thickerbox.) -Jason Levine -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/JHeartbeat---New-Plugin-tf2278733.html#a6329221 Sent from the JQuery mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ jQuery mailing list discuss@jquery.com http://jquery.com/discuss/

Thanks for the link. I'll be sure to try it out when I get a spare second. Jason Levine wrote: Hi, Sorry about that.

Just a suggestion. How about being able to do it in a more jQuery-like
way. Instead of adding a div called 'HeartBeatDIV' to the page, you
could apply it to an existing div, i.e.:
$(#mydiv).jheartbeat({url: mypage.asp, delay: 3000}, myCallBackFunction)
You could then use it several times on a page as well (as in several
div's that reload content from different locations periodically). Kind
of like doing the following, but with potential for much more (due to
being a plugin)
setTimeout($('#mydiv).load('mypage.asp'), 3000)
Another suggestion would be the ability to pass on parameters:
$(#mydiv).jheartbeat({url: mypage.asp, delay: 3000, urlparams :
{searchfor: bar} }, myCallBackFunction)
