Abstract:
1. A method for transmission of live updates on a web page in a browser on a client device, comprising: (a) said client device loading a web page, wherein said web page contains an embed code for an embeddable unit of a live update on said web page; (b) obtaining from a content delivery network an embedded URL specified in said embed code, wherein said URL contains executable static runtime code using a unit ID; (c) passing said unit ID to a dynamic server which performs a lookup to convert said unit ID into a cache key URL, whereby said cache key URL points to a location on said content delivery network and encodes a cache key containing information for said embeddable unit of said live update on said web page; (d) said dynamic server using an HTTP redirect delivering to said client device said cache key URL, wherein said cache key URL is loaded by said client device which then targets said content delivery network to make a request for said embeddable unit of said live update with said cache key URL; and (e) said content delivery network serving said embeddable unit of said live update to said client device on which said live update is displayed or updated, wherein said embed code is capable of updating said live update and have said updates propagate to said client device without having to change any aspect on said content delivery network.
