I was discussing with a friend about the creation of a monitoring dashboard in HTML. As any monitoring tool you want to be able to see the information in real-time, so you need to refresh the content….
One way of doing it is to refresh the whole page and this is easy, just use the meta tag:
<META HTTP-EQUIV="Refresh" CONTENT="5; URL=http://www.grallandco.com/" >
where 5 is the number of seconds between each refresh.
Javascript allows you to easily refresh a specific image of your page (a chart for example):
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 |
|
You can obviously make the whole think dynamic and configurable…
