Unless I am misunderstanding your question, this does not really sound like a problem the MVC design pattern, but rather a typical client-server app problem. To ensure that all of your clients always have the most up to date info, you really only have a few options. Push updates from the server to the clients using something like FDS Poll the server constantly to see if any changes have occurred since your last poll and pull down the latest data if so Either solution, you would then just update your cairngorm model with the data received in the result event (in the pulling case via a service) and if your controls are bound to your model then they would update automatically after the data transfer completed. Of course there are tons of other considerations that come into play in this scenario like conflict resolution, which can be solved with a complex merge/purge based solution or a last in wins kind of thing. All problems that just about every client server app has to face when dealing with multiple clients modifying the same data. Just some things to think about. If I am off base from your question, just let me know. Karl Cynergy

(php&mysql&amfphp) but the problem is that other clients may change the data(base) so my model values must be updated in these cases. this seems to be a common problem with MVC so can you please share your solutions and best practices ? the first thing that comes to my mind is to check database for changes periodically, and most possibly this is the only way; but many procedures can be used in this also; so i need suggestions before starting coding. thanks.. yigit ________________________________ Expecting?
