How does the XMLH=TTPRequest know when the file has changed on the=20server? =A0It needs to know this so it can download the new and updated=20file, right?
> I just ran a test, and entering all asterisks in the timer fields, in=cluding the "Second" field, results in a trigger that executes ev=ery second. Give it a try.Thanks for the test Brian, I should have thought of that. =A0The inst=ructions are wrong in this case, but at least it makes my trigger managemen=t easier ... :)I was working on this approach a year ago or so on another website, b=ut the project ended prematurely so I never learned how this works, and tha=t's why I'm going to ask:
> If you had a trigger that ran once per second and wrote the auction st=atus to a text or xml file, you could use XMLHttpRequest (AJAX) to fetch th=at file from the client page and update the page content with the results. =This would execute very fast, and not bother WebDNA with every client reque=st, just with the once-per-second trigger.
How does the XMLHTTPRequest know when the file has changed on the server? ==A0It needs to know this so it can download the new and updated file, right=?
