Shoutbox refresh and page reload discrepancy

(1/26) > >>

andy:
Not sure if this is a bug or odd behaviour (works as designed, not as expected).

When a message is added to the shoutbox it doesn't display with refresh (not within a minute anyway). But is does immediately show if the page is reloaded...

If it shows on page reload immediately why doesn't it show on refresh?
Same thing happens when moderator deletes a message.

Can I see a live test?

andy:
Try it on your site ... 2 user accounts. I would have to register you on my site ...uhmmm  :O

Think it was using chrome and firefox 8 but i wouldnt blame them for it .

andy:
BTW... i just saw your signature - i was looking for a custom mod - no takers yet.

Would really like to improve smf user search to include custom fields that are not text/textbox.
Even if it were a custom block ok.

andy:
Strange...

Admin using firefox adds to shoutbox - displays to self.

Register user with chrome refreshes - displays.

Register user using chrome adds to shoutbox - displays to self.

Admin using firefox refreshes (manual) - no update (several times). Page reload displays new shout.

Seems like refresh doesnt work after ordinary user shouts.

Im getting the same effect from registered user to registered user (with firefox). Refresh isnt showing new shouts immediately ...until page is reloaded.
