I know it's uni-directional... It's not the point... I mean that another view from another controller, would invoke, say, an ajax call, to IT'S OWN CONTROLLER's action, which will THEN invoke the SSE-enabled-action in the other controller.

Of course I understand that I can have more then a single SSE-enabled controller-action, but as you said - this would mean that, say, a "chat" view, may ONLY invoke a "chat" SSE-enabled-controller-action, and a "calendar" view, may ONLY invoke a "calendar" SSE-enabled-controller-action... What if I want 2 users to collaborate on the same data, using different views, and still get real-updates? Let's say we have 2 views, a calendar, and a scheduling-run-chart - Different views of the same (or partially-shared) data, for different use-cases. How can I have one updating the calendar, and getting live-updates from another user updating the schedule (and vice-versa) ? If it is not clear verbally, perhaps a picture is in order... <https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-m04hkb0vV40/UWL6Vj2_efI/AAAAAAAAAFE/O0zGPg55KnQ/s1600/SSE.jpg> I'm attaching a picture - the "missing-part" in web2py from this stand-point, are the "green arrows"... -- --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web2py-users" group.
