Frank Nimphius and Jobinesh Purushothaman is coming to Bangalore this April at Great Indian Developer Summit 2010 ( developersumit dot com) to to show how JavaServer Faces can be used to build compelling Ajax user interfaces for Web Services models giving end users a comfortable working environment that includes client side validation and user interface customization.

They use ‘best-fit’ which means it uses a different technique for each browser – so it could be long-polling, iframe streaming or html 5 web sockets depending on the browser.

StreamHub (http://www.stream-hub.com/) is a commercial Comet server which I think uses Iframes instead of XHRs. Seems to work in IE and Firefox. It has a free edition, might check it out.

We have implemented a commercial grade HTTP push server at the site http://www.udaparts.com/document/Tutorial/httppush.htm

Hi,
Does Mozilla process event handler onSend, for each sub part of mime data coming from server as soon as it arrives or only after data stream closes, I tried doing this but mozilla waits till server closed the data stream.

As I have said to many, I have found that AJAX push IS possible using long polling. http://www.sentertainment.net/blog/

Have you seen Anyterm? (http://anyterm.org/)

It doesn’t use mixed-replace, but rather sends each chunk of data in its own response. As soon as it gets a response the client sends a new request. The server doesn’t reply until it has new data to send, or a timeout has occurred.

The performance is quite respectable, as you’ll see if you try the demos on the anyterm web site.

I’m now using the same technqiue in Decimail Webmail (http://deimail.org/webmail/) for asynchronous new mail notification.

I was fascinated by this post, as I was unaware of the MIME type you describe and have been attempting to write a web-based chat app using “comet.” I’ve gone the frame approach and most recently tried and failed and using the “slow-load” in combination with an XMLHTTPRequest (it hangs the browser.)

Any idea how Meebo.com pushes data from server to client? I don’t see evidence of frames but in one of their blog posts they mention “long polling.” Cheers, Alan
