HTTP is request/response based protocol so AFAIK server has no
possibility to initiate the connection to the browser. So in the
initial response you must send some code saying browser to "refresh"
the connection after a while. When browser "reloads" the page, you
must check if the apropriate JMS answer (from remote appliaction) has
arrived and send it to the browser, otherwise send the "refresh"
response again.
Tip:
Look at HTML Meta tag <META HTTP-EQUIV="Refresh" Content="5;
URL=http://some.server.com/some/path/to/servlet";> - in the "Content"
field the number before ";" is number of seconds to wait before reload,
the URL is URL to reload.
It is also good to show the user some text (or picture) like "Wait
please...".
