So I have the majority of my system working and I am stuck on one last bit
The GET is currentlyusing the same notification_id it gets from the while loop, so it constantly searches against that id for new records over and over.
LIKE SO...
jquery....4862996 (line 4)
GET http://viewajax.php?notification_id=43&_=1405814864693
jquery....4862996 (line 4)
GET http://viewajax.php?notification_id=43&_=1405814864694
What I'm looking to do is search the first notification_id from the while loop send it off to the server side viewajax.php to see if there is a new record and if there is insert it into its div, (which it currently does) but then use that same new notification_id from the server on its next ajax cycle for new records. I've tried everything and asked many questions and I've been looking high and low online for possible solutions to no avail. Any help would be greatly appreciated and I will love you forever.
