do_push (
params
)
Implements a server push operation, which updates a page at specific intervals. Parameters are:
-delay =>
n
Specifies the number of seconds, n , to wait before the next call to the page-drawing subroutine.
-last_page =>
\&sublast
Runs the subroutine
sublast
to draw the last page update of a server push operation. The
-last_page
routine is invoked when the
-next_page
routine returns false. A reference to a subroutine glob should be provided for this parameter, but the name of the subroutine is also acceptable.
-next_page =>
\&sub
sub
is the name of the subroutine responsible for redrawing the page and counting the number of iterations (if you want repeated updating). The
do_push
routine ends when
sub
returns false (or when the
-last_page
subroutine is invoked). A reference to a subroutine glob should be provided for this parameter, but the name of the subroutine is also acceptable.
-type =
string
Specifies the content type of the pushed data. The default value is
text/html
.
