refresh part of php page


I am new to coding with php and SQL I know html, css and js

I want to code for a simple chatroom web page I have written the sign in and sign up part and I have saved some user accounts information in my database

but my problem is how to refresh only a part of web page using only php.

I have a div in my page for showing messages that are saved in database and I want its content to be updated when a new message is gone to the database but I don't want the whole page to be refreshed.

Please Help me wiith this.


Solution

  • To refresh only part of a webpage you can use AJAX. It is based on JavaScript and lets you update certain parts of a webpage without reloading it. Here you can learn more: https://www.w3schools.com/js/js_ajax_intro.asp
