I am creating a chat application like Messenger for the web (using the browser) and I'm wondering if there is a way to receive new messages from time to time from the server other than refreshing the page each 5 sec.
If there were a way to have the server-side application send new messages to the browser this would be awesome because it would save dramatically on bandwidth. The application would consume bandwidth only when there are new messages. There would be no communication client-server until people write a new message. Do you know if it's possible? -- Thanks, Admin. Want to buy me a book? http://tinyurl.com/78xzb :) -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
