Reload only part of an iframe












1















I looked on many posts but I've never found out such a context like the one I have so I'm requesting you some help.



Here is my development context :



I had in mind to build a single-page based PHP Application and I then chose to set-up a global container page embedding a side navbar-menu on the left for navigation control and an iframe on the right for related content.
The iframe is updated following the navigation navbar to display the selected content to the user.



First, I'm not saying that this is the right way to do this kind of PHP Application and would be ears opened to different way to achieve this.



For now, it's working out but I rose up a problem since I would like to reload only A PART of my content iframe. Indeed, there is a div box inside it that should be updated when the rest shouldn't (or at least it looks strange during navigation).



I was wondering if setting-up a listener on the iframe to look on mysql database updates and then trigger a JS function would be memory cost efficient ?
What would you guys think ? Maybe there's a different way to solve this problem (I was thinking of a big AJAX rendering instead of an iframe for example) ?



Thanks a lot for your answers,



Martin

          Okay so for those who would face the same situation I ended up trigerring an ajax function in my child iframe from the parent main page via the instruction document.getElementbyId("myIframe").contentWindow.myAjaxFunction() that run the search script in background (with post parameters from the parent page).



          Then I got the reload of only a section of the iframe.

                    Create new schema in PostgreSQL using DBeaver

                    Image
                    0 At the beginning of my current job I had limited access to DB but recently my role is changed to superuser, admin, and owner. My colleague who was the previous DB admin is able to create a schema or change the permissions as there is a permission tab in the properties and he can change permissions by clicking easily. Would you please let me know how I can create schema and change permissions as well? Why his dbeaver looks different from me? He can easily right click on the schema folder on top of all schemas on the left side column and select create new schema while I do not have that, like the following picture I found on the internet. postgresql database-schema dbeaver share | improve this question

                    Deepest pit of an array with Javascript: test on Codility

                    Image
                    0 $begingroup$ This is the question from a Codility test, as a task in an interview: DeepestPit - problem description A non-empty zero-indexed array A consisting of N integers is given. A pit in this array is any triplet of integers (P, Q, R) such that: ·         0 ≤ P < Q < R < N; ·         sequence [A[P], A[P+1], ..., A[Q]] is strictly decreasing, i.e. A[P] > A[P+1] > ... > A[Q]; ·         sequence A[Q], A[Q+1], ..., A[R] is strictly increasing, i.e. A[Q] < A[Q+1] < ... < A[R]. The depth of a pit (P, Q, R) is the number min {A[P] − A[Q], A[R] − A[Q]}. For example, consider array A consisting of 10 elements such that: A[0] = 0 A[1] = 1 A[2] = 3 A[3] = -2 A[4] = 0 A[5] = 1 A[6] = 0 A[7] = -3 A[8] = 2 A[9] = 3 Triplet (2, 3, 4) is
