How do i accomplish it I'm not sure what you mean by 'persistently monitor'. If you mean listen for incoming connections then you need to look at the socket or stream functions. If that is the case then I don't see where the Client Browser comes into it. Please elaborate further on what you are actually trying to accomplish. -Stut -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

hi what i mean is i want to write a script where , when ny client requests come i read the stream and then process it here is the exact steps when the user first initiates i create a session and establish a TCP connection second: when teh user next sends a request i dont create a new TCP connection but use the existing TCP connection.

Ok, couple of questions... 1) Why? 2) Why? What is making these connections from the client side? -Stut -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

XAJAX or another AJAX library, perhaps?

same TCP creation, because i i am bindiing that stream to the Server. i am actually creating a component. a component which resides in between a client and server i accept HTTP requests from a client and relay the same uysing a TCP connection to the SERVER. and vice versa i think this makes it clear.

OK, so you're basically making a server app. I suggest you start here: http://php.net/stream-socket-server -Stut -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

I think what you want to look for is how to write a socket server. You'll find a lot about this via google. A socket server lets you open up a persistent port for listening with a process that runs continually in the background and then allows you to spawn off multiple sockets as they come in, like a web server or ftp or ssh. My guess is that there's a fair amount of complexity here that you'll have to investigate. For instance, you'll have to preempt port 80, the standard port on which httpd listens, forward the http request to your web server on a local port, retrieve the response and pass it back to the client. And presumably you'll have to be doing this for multiple clients. I think someone on this list suggested using AJAX. That would be much simpler. If you had to have data persistence, for instance, you could store data in temporary files on the server or in temporary database entries, or you could simply pass data back and forth using POST. The script which handles the AJAX requests would be the component that resides on the server. _ Myron Turner http://www.room535.org http://www.bstatzero.org http://www.mturner.org/XML_PullParser/ -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
