Server push

Hi All

 

How could I implement server-push ?

 

Take for example a simple multi-user chat.

I want the server to update all connected clients when one client updates

the chat.

I could do this with a timer, but this is not very efficient as it would

generate traffic for all clients every time the timer fires.

 

Any ideas ?

You could make your server to generate a file on the server, then your

clients check this file. The file contains a list of client that have a

need to request the server for message.

 

Normally it can't be possible to make a server push due of kind of

communication between web clients and the server in a Web protocol.

 

Regards
