Gidday I'm trying to get my head around why comet is better than a basic AJAX long poll (which I tried for the first time today), and have a question, which I will follow up with a second, related question.
1. Is it better because a basic long poll creates a connection between a client and server, and the server can only handle a certain amount of open connections? 2. Does APE (or any comet server) work in that it 'takes over' the connection after the server initially responds, therefore allowing the initial connection to be closed, while the APE connection stays open? Thanks for your time and help. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "APE Project" group.
