Question

I realized at a moment with the help of firebug in stackoverflow.com, when someone accepted your answer, suddenly your points got increased without any Ajax hit received to any method. Amazing, How is it possible?

Please advice so that i can try to implement this technique into my upcoming projects. Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

Make sure you have looked into the net option. There are two ways I can tell.

1. Web Sockets
2. iFrame

Please have a look at http://www.html5rocks.com/en/features/connectivity & http://html5demos.com/web-socket

But will work on limited browsers

Using iFrame with simple get request no ajax call will made but you will be able to see it firebug net. This is what Facebook uses and all browser compatible.
