I am trying to refresh the Administrator page whenever user finished sign in and submitted their information. These two pages cannot be parent and child page. What will be the easiest way to solve this in ColdFusion or JavaScript? Thank you so much for your time. Have a wonderful weekend.  |
If you want to transfer data between two different pages that are not "connected" in any way and see the results live, how about this:
Write a tiny Javascript loop that sends the data you want to see into your machine's localStorage (say, at 1 second intervals). Then have another loop running in the admin page reading and displaying the localStorage data, also looping once a second.
It would go like this:
[client login] --> localStorage.setItem
[admin viewer] <-- localStorage.getItem
Haven't tried it, but it should work???
Edit:
Just tried it...... it works!
