Here is the code for the prototype i have been working on, to test the concept and check some of the changes needed to implement it. The code isnt meant to be added, just for checking and commenting; it was done against the code on SourceForge cvs (public, of course). Following are some notes of implementation, covering what i have found out, done and thought about.

Maybe you could change the version-string (in upcode.h I think) to reflect which code case you're using and indicate it's an Ajax build.. From my first test, it seems that this Ajax version is MUCH slower than before, but I will make some timings later, as I can be wrong.. Also, I can't use View -> Source.. Has that been disabled? Issues Are you using old files? QUOTE(Login Page @ Ajax-Template) [GZIP Enabled] [[Valid] CSS] [[Valid] HTML] QUOTE(Login Page @ XP-Template) [GZIP Enabled] [Valid CSS] [Valid HTML]

Yes, AJAX advantage is the reload of the data only. And I think if we do it right the update time should be reduced 10 times at least. We can also use an update interval of seconds instead of the one of some minutes. Take in account the page is not reloaded but the data updated so you won't see the page changing. µTorrent is doing a full AJAX WebServer. Three files are needed (besides images), an HTML with the style weighting 19Kb, a JavaScript file of 50Kb and a CSS of 15Kb. Of course we have a lot of windows they don't have/use but they are doing a really nice work. The are facing some problems with browsers compatibility because of extremely nice features. I think they are overdoing some things. QUOTE(Darklord @ May 24 2006, 08:15) QUOTE(Fuxie - DK @ May 24 2006, 05:28) Also, I can't use View -> Source.. Has that been disabled? No, of course not. (i dont believe that is even possible). There is an extension for Firefox allowing to do that IIRC.
