Okay - to clarify push - I think explanation of the scenario is best - 1) User can't find a product or a piece of information on a large website - 2) User clicks a button and sends a request to the Administrator - ( a whole que or dynamic page would be setup to handle these requests and post multiple ones) 3) Administrator surfs around - finds the piece of information And pushes it back to user. 4) On users computer in the originating browser window - or maybe frame -the file loads up. IN fact thinking it would have to be frames based.
Why can't we do this with just sending a link through a chat or something - It can't be that easy. Client wants to push a 2 way communication and sharing of pages between his staff and customers. Again - this particular site is running coldfusion cookies and session variables - they all exist so I can know a little about who someone is when they request. Any page they hit assigns them a cartid and some info is stored in db. jay Ben Doom wrote: >I suppose that it depends on what you mean by 'push'.
