Check
out pushlets: http://www.fluidiom.com:8080/. It
pushes (streams) JavaScript to a hidden frame on the browser where it is then
executed which updates the page.

Subject: Re: Real time web page?
It is limited by the HTTP protocol that the web server cannot 'push' data. The only pure HTML solution I'm aware of is to put a meta tag onto the page to ask the browser to refresh (i.e. 'pull') the page periodically:
<META HTTP-EQUIV="Refresh" CONTENT="3;URL=http://www.some.org/some.html">
Things like Macromedia Flash and Shockwave may provide real-time data pushing. But I'm not sure.

Hi everyone. We are starting a new project and have a requirement for real-time
updates in a web browser. Does anyone know of any tools that allow for this,
apart from applets?
