Live websites with auto-reload
Livescript.co.uk specialises in live websites, where the contents of a page automatically updates itself when new content is found on the
server. If the auto reload function is on, which is shown on the top left of the site, then a check is made for changes every 10 seconds. If changes have been made to the page within that time, it is pushed directly to the page without the need to refresh. If no changes have been made then no new information is sent, saving both bandwidth and server work.
Server and bandwidth benefits
Both the browsing of a livescript website, and the live auto-reload function, only import data to the requested area. A regular server coded website will calculate the entire page when navigating or refreshing. So a livescript website does less work on the server, and uses less bandwidth, but achieves the same results.
