I'm specifically interested in the callback feature of Applet-Servlet RMI to implement a chat like application. I don't want to poll and it must work thru firewalls.
I believe Java RMI is the *ONLY* way for a web server to asynchronously call a browser. Am I wrong? are there other ways? Does it work with Mozilla and Tomcat? Does it really work on port 80? Does it work thru all firewalls? Most firewalls? Some firewalls? Where is the documentation on how to do this? Where is the specification that says it is possible? I have Jason Hunter's example from "Java Servlet Programming". Are there any other examples? Do I need to sign my applet? Do I need to buy a certificate from Verisign for$100 to sign my applet? Does verisgn require that I be incorporated to sign an applet? ___________________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and include in the body of the message "signoff SERVLET-INTEREST".
