Event Driven Application (COMET)

[eluser]Dregond Rahl[/eluser]
@ Phil Sturgeon, intervals are still there like 1 second or 5 seconds delay checking if the other user sent a msg or not. what i mean is real time applications and event driven ones that are server side, so when someone sends a msg everyone gets it. It complex to explain its called "server push" or COMET. its server side not client side.

@ garymardell, thanks for the link ill look into that

@ vendiddy, it would be the same as normal AJAX using push technology and COMET intervals wont be needed information will be updated only when it needs to be so checking of the file wont be needed over and over across intervals.

Thanks for everyone replies, push technology is relatively new for normal web based applications so its quite hard to figure out.
