I am creating a web application where I access a database on a SQL server machine from local networked PC's via Javascript and HTML. Unfortunately, Microsoft does not allow the ado intervace to fire events back using Javascript or VBScript. I am trying to figure out how to notifiy each client that is connected to the server whenever the database changes. What I think might work well is to have a client activeX component built with Python embedded in the html page that receives event notification from a server component embedded in an ASP page or maybe an HTML I don't know yet. At any rate, Can I create a COM server / client component set with Python?
