I am not entirely clear what you are trying to do, but in general using a web browser, there is no way to have a persistent, bi-directional communication to an HTTP server. At least not one that you can control. There are ways to accomplish this kind of thing using JavaScript and iframes. So as as far as PHP and Postgres is concerned, the answer to your question is, "No, but it can be done." Keary Suska Esoteritech, Inc. "Leveraging Open Source for a better Internet"
