Question

I'm looking forward to know how they do this. They update their information on just a couple of ms and I see no AJAX requests on my firebug console.

Here is the page: Económico

As you can see on this two images below, this is the information they are updating. enter image description hereenter image description here

Thanks for your help, looking forward to extend my knowledge!

Was it helpful?

Solution

They are making requests using websockets

e.g.

Request URL:ws://ortc-prd2-useast1-s0002.realtime.co/broadcast/444/m38tirp9/websocket
Request Method:GET

The responses are in Frames

So not your usual stuff, what firebug are you using? It is likely not reported in the console, but in the Network tab.

OTHER TIPS

That's done using WebSocket.

Look at the network tab in chrome dev tools and you'll see it.

They are using Realtime.co, which I work for. It's a full-blown real-time communication platform that handle all the nasty stuff for you: scalability, security and automatic fallbacks when a browser does not support websocket.

You can get your own free account at Realtime.co and give it a go. You'll start doing your own cool real-time enabled applications in not time.
