Simple comet example using php and jquery

by

You should use polling, or use a web server which is specially conceived for long requests and COMET, with a good JS backend:

function listen() {
    $.get("/mylongrequestfile", {}, function(data) {
        $("#mydiv").html(data);
        listen(); // then launch again
    }));
};

Remember that COMET is “wait for data, if there’s data return and exit”, so JS backend will have to parse the data and re-launch the process of asking the server.

In this example, if there is a server side problem or just a disconnection from the user side, the entire process will be broken (the function is only called if the request is successful)
