Hello all.
I want to create a page that loads completely, but then dynamically updates
the html updates based on a series of whois queries. I don't think there is
a way to make CF stream this data...
What I have is a local database of zone files for the .com domain names.
This database can be queried, and will immediately show if a domain name is
taken. However, if a domain name is not in the local zone file, it may or
may not be available for registration (the zone file does not show domains
on "hold" status, nor domains without name servers) ... So, I need to do a
whois query on these possibly available domain names to determine true
availability. However, I don't want the end user to have to wait for this
entire process to complete before showing the html result page.
For example, let's say the query contains 20 domain names, I perform a local
query and determine that 5 of them are possibly available. But since whois
queries can take several seconds I want to go ahead and display to the end
user an html page with the list of possible domains, but have this page
dynamically update as the results of the whois queries completes.
I believe this is possible with javascript and data streams, but I just
don't have the skills to do this, and have not been able to find good
samples or resources online. If anyone has any good web site references or
books that would help me accomplish this, OR if anyone has the skills to do
this -- I would pay for the job. (please contact me off-list)
Thanks,
Kelly Britt
