You could use a small flash object on the page to do the communication to a socket server.

Not sure about how easy it is to pass stuff between flash and javascript thought.

all I know is that there is a rails project <http://rubyforge.org/projects/rtrails/> which implements something Comet-like (with an additional server for the persistent connections). What I have read somewhere is that Campfire does polling, but not sure about that. On 3/9/06, *Jim Geurts* <[EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>> wrote:

    Just out of curiosity, is there a plan to support Comet (name coined

    connection for low latency data operations.  It also represents a
    nice alternative to polling.
