Ajax Auction RevCMS

I'm thinking about doing an auction script for RevCMS, would Ajax be a good choice to implement live auction? For example after I enter an amount and click the bid button, the page would start sending requests to the server which checks in the database if a new bid has been placed. If a new bid has been found the page will be updated without the need to refresh.

I want to make it a "live" auction but then again it would stupid to keep sending requests if say the auctioned item still has few days to go. I mean you only want to keep refreshing in the last few minutes of the auction.

This is what I'm looking at: http://forum.ragezone.com/attachment...2&d=1409400218

Yes I think Ajax could work out great.

Any type of Javascript would be perfect for nowadays live updates. If you're familiar with AJAX then that's just a bonus :wink:
