Re: auto refresh client side when ever there are changes in the database (without timer)

Thank you for the reply. But server push does not seem practical when
we can't flush the HTTP connection. Although they did explain how to
overcome it, however I require the HTTP connection to stay alive for I
will use it for a live graph presentation (similar to the stock graph
in yahoo finance.)

I would like to know has every browser in fact support HTML5 already?
I think most of the users in the world are still using browsers with
HTML4 (Internet Explorer).

Thank you,
Fendy Tjin
