I have the following code and it works great, I just want to convert it to live so it updates every 10 seconds or so without a page refresh, I'm guessing I'll need to use AJAX or Jquery but I lack the knowledge on how to do so.
=====VIA <?php include("database.php"); ?>====
<?php
// Create connection
$con=mysqli_connect("ip/host","user","pass","db");
// Check connection
if (mysqli_connect_errno()) {
echo "Failed to connect to MySQL: " . mysqli_connect_error();
}
?>
====ON THE PAGE====
<? php
$result = mysqli_query($con, "SELECT * FROM sql347511.1 ORDER BY ID DESC LIMIT 1;");
while ($row = mysqli_fetch_array($result)) {
echo "<div class='infobox_data'>Temperature: ".$row['TEMP']."°C</div>";
echo "<div class='infobox_data'>Humidity: ".$row['HUMID']."%</div>";
echo "<div class='infobox_time'>Captured: ".date("g:i:s a F j, Y ", strtotime($row["TIME"]))."</div>";
}
mysqli_close($con); ?>
Got it working, thanks for the help everyone.
Javascript
$(document).ready(function(){
loadstation();
});
function loadstation(){
$("#station_data").load("station.php");
setTimeout(loadstation, 2000);
}
station.php
<?php
include ("database.php");
$result = mysqli_query($con, "SELECT * FROM sql347511.1 ORDER BY ID DESC LIMIT 1;");
while ($row = mysqli_fetch_array($result))
{
echo "<div class='infobox_data' id='infobox_temp'>" . $row['TEMP'] . "°C</div>";
echo "<div class='infobox_data' id='infobox_humid'>" . $row['HUMID'] . "%</div>";
echo "<div class='infobox_time'>At " . date("g:i:s a F j, Y ", strtotime($row["TIME"])) . "</div>";
}
mysqli_close($con);
?>
Where to put the data
<div id="station_data"></div>
