Walkthrough

This change updates the inline JavaScript in DefaultPageLayout.php to modify the behavior when the browser tab regains focus via the visibilitychange event listener. If the PHP variable $myPage['Load'] is set and greater than zero, the page triggers a full reload using window.location.reload(). Otherwise, it continues to call nchanFocusStart() to resume live updates. The change only affects the focus regain handling and does not modify any exported or public entities.

Poem

When focus returns and the page is in view,
A check on $myPage['Load'] tells what to do.
If loading is needed, a reload comes soon,
Else live updates start with a gentle tune.
A hop and a skip, the logic refined—
The web GUI's smarter, with behavior aligned!

  • @coderabbitai modularize this function.
• PR comments: Tag @coderabbitai in a new PR comment to ask questions about the PR branch. For the best results, please provide a very specific query, as very limited context is provided in this mode. Examples:
  • @coderabbitai gather interesting stats about this repository and render them as a table. Additionally, render a pie chart showing the language distribution in the codebase.
  • @coderabbitai read src/utils.ts and generate unit testing code.
  • @coderabbitai read the files in the src/scheduler package and generate a class diagram using mermaid and a README in the markdown format.
