I am trying to refresh a label and maybe a datagrid on a page, without refreshing the entire page. You can think of it like a messaging system. I want my user to be notified when there is a new technical request for the user to take care of. any ideas about
this would be much appreciated
due to the stateless nature of the web, this is not possible without using an embedded ActiveX control (or applet). the server cannot *push* a response to the client in a traditionally web app
"Can't sleep, clowns will eat me... can't sleep clowns will eat me, can't sleep clowns will eat me"
thanks, i have actually figured out a workaround for the situation without having to use activeX. I figure i will have a process that will run on the page load, and then put an alert up to notify the user of the new information.
