I am trying to use periodic refresh(ajax)/polling on my site by XMLHttp(XHR) to check if a user has a new message on the database every 10 seconds, then if there is inform him/her by creating a div dynamically like this:
function shownotice() {
var divnotice = document.createElement("div");
var closelink = document.createElement("a");
closelink.onclick = this.close;
closelink.href = "#";
closelink.className = "close";
closelink.appendChild(document.createTextNode("close"));
divnotice.appendChild(closelink);
divnotice.className = "notifier";
divnotice.setAttribute("align", "center");
document.body.appendChild(divnotice);
divnotice.style.top = document.body.scrollTop + "px";
divnotice.style.left = document.body.scrollLeft + "px";
divnotice.style.display = "block";
request(divnotice);
}
Is this a reliable or stable way to check message specifically since when I look under firebug, a lot of request is going on to my database? Can this method make my database down because of too much request? Is there another way to do this since when I login to facebook and check under firebug, no request is happening or going on but I know they are using periodic refresh too... how do they do that?
