Re: [Phpgroupware-developers] Autorefresh feature in Mail app

[Tony (Angles) Puglisi]

I coded this a while ago but it seemed to incite controversy.

I experimented with various refresh methods and decided on one that would not
re-request the images, i.e. it used the browser's cached images. Note that some
refresh methods will ask for the images all over again, not accepting the 
cached files.

Then, I had the mail email page (email/index.php) autorefresh, then someone
suggested it would be better to have the user's "welcome" page (home.php)
autorefresh, since this page also may have calendar, weather, etc. portals on 
it.

Then I was told there was a notify window to accomplish the email checking 
(which
works fine) and in the future the calendar notifies as well, so that 
autorefreshing
any page was unnecessary.

In the end, I decided to use the notify window, and I archived the code and 
never
committed it, although it worked great on my personal install when it was there.

If there is demand, I can simply un-archive the code and commit. Note that it
involves the header.inc.php (? hard to remember) file, and the autorefresh is
conditional upon it being the "welcome page" home.php or the email/index.php 
page.

You say the word, it's in.
