         Dear Michael Weller:

                 Thanks for your answer. Effectively the solutions you
propose me are very similar to that that I intuitively had thought (as you
can guess I am quite new to both, Java and Servlets).

                 I just would like to ask you an additional question. Is
there any Java method that allows me to effectively PUSH a web page to one
or more clients?. In particular, as I expect to do the synchronized
presentation of web pages (possibly several), I think a lot about the
possible congestion that there can be if every client executes a GET to the
server, so if I could PUSH in a multicast fashion the pages to be viewed (I
mean, send the page only once, and that it be received by all), I would
save a lot of network (and computing) resources.

                 Thanks a lot and best regards.

                 Guillermo Hoyos.
