Well, if you can live with not literally "pushing" to the client, this is the sort of application AJAX was made for. Have a timed event, every few seconds maybe, whatever your tolerable definition of "real time" is, that makes and AJAX request to check for new data and display it when found. Pretty easy.
Have a peak at the AjaxParts Taglib (APT) in Java Web Parts (JWP): http://javawebparts.sourceforge.net http://javawebparts.sourceforge.net/javadocs/javawebparts/ajaxparts/taglib/package-summary.html The benefit is that it will allow you to do this, since it has a timed AJAX event function, and will save you from having to write any Javascript yourself (most likely). Whether you go with APT or not, AJAX is probably the first thing you want to look at. Frank -- Frank W.
