On twitter (new twitter) and facebook they now have the the ability to load new tweets and posts when you hit the bottom of the page..
Is there a JavaScript / jQuery event that you can call / add to a div so when the browser hits the bottom it does some ajax call to get the new data?
Thanks
Daniel

Reset to default 5There's a jQuery plugin for that: Infinite Scroll jQuery Plugin.
And here's the description of the pattern that it implements: The Interaction Design Pattern.
It's called Infinite Scrolling, and there's a jQuery plugin for it here: http://www.infinite-scroll./
It's called "Lazy Loading"
