Stuart I am using an HTTP Tunneling protocol  (for serialized Java objects)
to handle communication from my servlets back to my
applet front ends and it works great...   I designed my applets to maintain
state information and send this along with a request for
new data, from it's associated servlet, at regular intervals (which is
settable by the applet user for periods up to several minutes
between requests) and the connection "appears" to stay open for as long as
the applet/browser is running If you want a good
source of info on how to set up a applet/servlet pair that uses HTTP
tunneling protocols, get a copy of Core Servlets and Java
Server Pages by Marty Hall and published by Sun Microsystems He has a
very good example of how to set these up

That's the way HTTP works. You browser connects to a web server when it
makes a request. And once it gets a response, it disconnects. The
connection, it creates, may be persistent (default with HTTP/1.1) though.
But servers generally timeout after being idle for sometime. So what you
are looking for in terms of consistent or persistent connections may not be
guaranteed this way. You should consider using sessions in your servlet or
jsp (that is if you just want to persist the user state) or maybe use
sockets (may run into firewall/security issues)

Hi everybody,

I'm looking to make an HTTP tunnel servlet or jsp page that will keep the
user connected consistently rather than it disconnecting and re-connecting
each time a request is sent. Could anyone help me out here?
