Client side refresh mechanism for multiple tabs
[Detail]
Multi-Tab Refresh help you to keep your data synchronized in different tabs of the same browser.
It was design for scenarios where multiple tabs are open, displaying related information and changes on one tab must be reflected immediatly on the other tabs. In order to reduce the number of server calls to monitor changes, it uses a client-side refresh mechanism, based on cookies.
Supports monitorization of different content (or features):
Each screen subcribes to the features it wants to monitor:
When a screen changes it's content, it signals the change by updating the related feature cookie;
Other screens are monitoring the cookies and once they notice a change, trigger a notification to refresh.
It works on all browsers, including IE8.
This project also provides one example module.
