Hi,
My site is based on ASP.NET (C#) with sql server as the data source.
My Task:
Create a table based on the data source and when data is changed on the data source (sql server) update
the client table, but only update the cell with the data the was changed and not all the table – no page refresh.
Let’s say that checking for updates happens every 10 seconds.
There should be no data manipulation by the client such as insert/update/delete.
It’s something like a stock ticker that only updates data when it’s needed and only the data the was changed.
There’re lots of technologies out there: Ajax, Comet, jQuery, Linq etc.. and I’m getting lost with a task that shouldn’t be so complicated.
Comet requires a constant connection between the client & server and can be trouble when working with lots of clients.
What the right way to go?
Can you point me to a sample of such grid?
Thanks,
Assaf.
