I have a question on how RC's Latest Threads panel (on the left side of the screen below ''Who's online') is automatically updated, when a user makes a post in a thread.
It is as though content is pushed to the browser, rather than pulled by the browser which is the way I've known things to work.
To test, I opened RCF homepage on two tabs in IE 11.
I added a post in an existing thread and lo it was refreshed immediately in the other tab of the browser.
How does this magic happen please ?
Thank you. :-)
Edit: It didn't happen for this new thread however.
