OK, i was thinking at the folowing 2 ways: 1. Use a http polling component as describe in jep. The problem is that there is only one component and is a servlet, so it will run only with Java orientaed webserver. SO here should be written a http polling component for apache and a php/asp page that will be relaoded periodicaly.
2. Use a continous http connection. i tried this in past but then i have in mind to use separate windows like in exodus, but now i am thinking that we could use a single window too like in tkabber for example. This method has the disadvantage that the connexion can be interrupted and it can be reestablished only by loging on. I was thinking of using a stream. as the xml came from jabberd the php/asp should interpret it and output javascript, html and DHTML Also there is a problem with this. i dont know if all browsers can handle this IE can for sure. The java/flash are not very good because not all browsers seport java and flash... If you have any other ideeas.. please post it on the list Adrian Rapa _______________________________________________ jdev mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mailman.jabber.org/listinfo/jdev
