Does WebORB use sockets? I thought it was an http connection, but I could be mistaken. If there's a better way, I'd be happy to switch, but I couldn't find anything. The current system is VERY lightweight, and it's quite unlikely that WebORB is faster, but it might be a lot more stable -- I definitely want to look into it.
Our needs are 1) Messaging between clients (Push to client) 2) Speed (for lightweight messages) Does WebORB do #1? I looked at the example you posted -- Yes, it is very easy to send JSON to PHP and get a JSON response -- we are doing this elsewhere. But HTTPService is, well, HTTP -- the server can't push data back to the client.
