Anyone have luck with loading new data into views ticker without reloading the page. I was hoping to user Views auto-refresh, but that reloads the whole view starting the ticker over. It would be nice to use ajax or something to refresh a single field or reload the whole view only at the end of the ticker.

I have been thinking about this for some time.

I think it needs

a) a way of the Drupal site serving not the whole View but just the new records
b) the view being formatted by the javascript and NOT the server
c) the javascript for this (and many other modules) to be amended to store the *records* and not just the html.

But even after all that - this module uses third party external libraries to do the scrolling. If they don't cope with having refreshed content then we probably can't make them.

PS This issue http://drupal.org/node/1440764 is roughly the same as this one.
