Our CORBA Server, from which we migrate away to become a web service server has the demand to ask the user from time to time a simple question, which demands a YES or a NO answer from the user. For that to work I have developed in the past a CORBA Server running on a PC, delivering to the windows system a call which pops up a message box with a caption, a title and a question and the two buttons YES and NO. When the user clicks on YES or NO the CORBA method quites and returns to the calling client-stub (running on the host corba server or vice versa) the asnwer given as an integer. As we migrate today away from CORBA to WebServices this issue still persists. My webservice needs a way to ask the user a question before it finally executes the required action. (such as deleting a file, a table or any thing only hardly or not for-seeable by the client. before I go on with my architecture and system designe, I like to ask you the experts as I am still a bit a web- service - newby how a server can ask a browser or a fat web service/(client or server) to pop up with a msg box. in other words, the thread goes from client to the web service server, invokes a service which sends the thread to the originating client which pops up a msg box and once the call is answered by the user with yes or no, the thread completes and retuns to the server to complete the method invocation as such, before the thread finally returns the result to the calling client. Any hints welcome before I go on to generate a web service stub and have a web service server running on each PC machine called. Josef.Stadelmann@ axa-winterthur.ch
