Hmmm - http is typically connectionless, however there are a few tricks to give the impression of what you require...
You can get the server to serve a multipart response and hence give a sequence of snapshots. You can set a refresh interval in the response header so that the browser requests the page again. Note that this essentially gives you a sequence of snapshots, rather than any 'real-time' updates... As an alternative - have you considered using a 'fat client' ie java application downloaded using jumpstart? regards Rob ----- Original Message ----- From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, October 25, 2001 2:16 AM Subject: Real time web page? > > > Hi everyone.
