Qasim Posted December 5, 2005 Share Posted December 5, 2005 Invision board is a much cleaner and reliable board than vbulletin - but there is one vb feature which would be nicehttp://www.vbulletin.com/docs/html/main/what_is_ajaxAJAX (Asynchronous Javascript and XML) allows your browser to send data to and receive data from a server without reloading the current page. This technology, whose use is being pioneered by Google, allows developers to create rich, fast-responding interactive pages. This allows people to add replies without refreshing Any chance this could ever be implemented in IPB? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.John. Posted December 5, 2005 Share Posted December 5, 2005 I'll let you in on a little secret: It's already implemented in lots of places :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qasim Posted December 5, 2005 Share Posted December 5, 2005 So it will be implemented soon then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.John. Posted December 5, 2005 Share Posted December 5, 2005 No, it already is :) It's in the latest version you can download, it's on the board you are currently viewing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qasim Posted December 5, 2005 Share Posted December 5, 2005 Is it? Hmmm..the vbulletin one is much faster and my screen still looks like its refreshing but the quick edit feature shows that its here I suppose this is what you get for being too lazy to upgrade :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Qasim Posted December 5, 2005 Share Posted December 5, 2005 For some reason the vb one is much faster it just appears in front of you the ipb one is a bit slower thanks for the help *off to upgrade* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TCWT Posted December 6, 2005 Share Posted December 6, 2005 ipb quick reply does refresh the page unlike vbulletin's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZainZ Posted December 6, 2005 Share Posted December 6, 2005 The fast reply in IPB is NOT implemented through Ajax Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bfarber Posted December 6, 2005 Share Posted December 6, 2005 AJAX is AJAX....I couldn't really see how one would be much quicker than the other. THIS would really depend upon the server you are browsing. ;) As for AJAX quick reply, I think it should be implemented myself. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logan Posted December 6, 2005 Share Posted December 6, 2005 I agree, I'd really like to see AJAX fast reply :) How about add that as a small treat for IPB 2.1.4 Brandon? No one said new features are only for major releases ^_^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phillykins Posted December 6, 2005 Share Posted December 6, 2005 If you have AJAZ enabled quick reply, the page would not be refreshed so posts made in between the time you read and reply would not be shown. Personally I'm not keen on the idea. Also, some hand-held devices do not support some of the AJAX techologies fully so you wouldn't be able to reply to topics with them.

Kman_ Posted December 10, 2005 Share Posted December 10, 2005 The problem with a fast reply AJAX is that you won't be able to see any posts that were posted in between the time you posted and someone else did. Besides, AJAX fast reply only makes it a second faster than normal quick reply, so there's really no point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
