[Cartoweb-users] Displaying real time data on the map

[Oliver Christen]

Hi

If you are using your project with ajax mode enabled, a possibility would be 
to have some javascript timer trigger a request on the image plugin after 
5min if the map image plugin has not been triggerer during the 5min 
duration. For that you only have to modify a little the Images.ajax.js file.

If ajax is disabled, you only need to refresh the page via javascript using 
a windows.location

regards
Oliver
